On certain semi-trailers equipped with an ArvinMeritor suspension system, the interface of the lower seat bracket and axle beam may not have been welded correctly during the manufacturing process. This could allow the axle to move out of position, which could affect vehicle handling and result in a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will inspect and, if necessary, apply missing welds.

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 Great Dane: 16 in the register, and 442 Canadian vehicle recalls filed in 2011.
