On certain vans converted to lowered floor mobility vehicles by The Braun Corporation, inadequate welding of a trailing arm modification may result in the trailing arm separating and causing a loss of vehicle control, which could result in a crash causing property damage, personal injury or death. The trailing arm separation may be preceded by a squeak, rattle or other noise emanating from the rear of the vehicle. Correction: Dealers will inspect the trailing arm welding integrity and correct as required.

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 register keeps an index of its own for every maker and every year it holds: Canadian recalls on a Braunability: 16 in the register, and 468 Canadian vehicle recalls filed in 2010.
