On certain trailers equipped with Dexter axle electric/hydraulic (e/h) brake system, the actuator pumps may not have been properly heat treated during the manufacturing process and premature wear of critical components in these pumps could result in a loss of braking efficiency on the trailer. This could increase stopping distances, possibly resulting in a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dexter axle dealers will replace the e/h brake actuator pumps.
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 2012133.

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: 444 Canadian vehicle recalls filed in 2012.
