The American register
Nothing here says any of these is this notice in another country. A model recalled in one country is often recalled in another, in different words and at a different time, and the authorities do not cross-reference each other. Reading them together is the reason this site holds more than one register.

On certain vehicles equipped with a Norcold refrigerator, a fatigue crack in the section of the cooling unit which contains the refrigerant could allow liquid solution to slowly leak. If a leak occurs, and the refrigerator continues to be operated after solution circulation has ceased, hydrogen gas may be expelled and can ignite. This could result in a fire, causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will retrofit the cooling unit with a thermal switch kit.
The wording above is the department's own, as it stood in the monthly file this site last read. Vehicle counts are the sum of the counts published for each make and model the recall covers. To act on a recall, use the official notice: Transport Canada recall 2010001.

Reading this against the source
This page is what Transport Canada published in the Vehicle Recalls Database, kept as it was read. The authority publishes only its current wording; if a notice is rewritten, the earlier version disappears there and is kept here. The whole register is at /canada, and how the reading is done is set out in the method.
What the words on this notice mean — the system it is filed under, and what the filing type says about who found the fault.
This notice names one vehicle among several registers that have written about it. Every notice this site holds for the Tiffin Allegro Bay, in all seven, is kept on that vehicle's own page, with the newest in each.
This register keeps an index of its own for every maker and every year it holds: Canadian recalls on a Tiffin: 95 in the register, and 468 Canadian vehicle recalls filed in 2010.
