On certain buses equipped with an optional air-operated driveline parking brake, a loss of air pressure will not be indicated to the driver by the illumination of an instrument panel warning lamp. As such, the driver may be unaware of an air leak causing partial parking brake application. Parking brake drag could result in a fire causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will install an 85psi pressure switch that will illuminate an instrument panel warning lamp in case of air pressure loss and partial parking brake application.
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 2012333.

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 Ic Bus: 116 in the register, and 444 Canadian vehicle recalls filed in 2012.
