Reading them together is the reason this site holds more than one register.

On certain model travel trailers, the tires may have inadequate clearance with the trailer floor and may be damaged when travelling over large bumps or pot holes if the trailer is loaded to the gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR). This could result in a blow out which could lead to a crash, resulting in injury and/or property damage. Correction: Dealers will install a lift kit between the frame and the axle mounting brackets to increase clearance between the tires and floor.
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 2014003.

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 Forest River Flagstaff, 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 Forest River: 239 in the register, and 591 Canadian vehicle recalls filed in 2014.
