Keystone BULLET in the other registers
This site holds seven national and European registers. Keystone BULLET is named on 10 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, the Federal Certification label and the Tire and Loading Information label do not contain the correct Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR), Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR), tire size, load range information, rim dimensions and inflation pressure. The labels incorrectly indicate a GAWR of 1,588 kg (3,500 lbs) instead of 1,996 kg (4,400 lbs), a GVWR of 3,447 kg (7,600 lbs) instead of 3629 kg (8,000 lbs), ST205/75R14C tires instead of ST225/75R15D, 14X6 rims instead of 15X6 and an inflation pressure of 345 kPa (50 psi) instead of 448 kPa (65 psi). This incorrect information could result in underinflated tires, causing poor vehicle handling characteristics, increasing the risk of a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Updated labels will be mailed to owners of affected vehicles, along with instructions for proper installation.
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 2012246.

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 Keystone Bullet, 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 Keystone: 168 in the register, and 444 Canadian vehicle recalls filed in 2012.
