Open Range JOURNEYER in the other registers
This site holds seven national and European registers. Open Range JOURNEYER is named on 3 American notices. Those are separate campaigns, filed with separate authorities on their own schedules.
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 travel trailers, a supporting crossmember was incorrectly modified during vehicle assembly. As a result, the main frame I-beams could develop stress cracks and fail. This could lead to poor vehicle handling characteristics which could result in a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will inspect and, if necessary, reinforce the frame crossmember.
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 2011360.

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 Open Range Journeyer, 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: 442 Canadian vehicle recalls filed in 2011.
