Transport Canada carries this recall as 2014244, dated 20 June 2014. The American register carries the same defect as campaign 14V341, dated 19 June 2014. They are the same defect because the manufacturer filed both under one internal campaign code, 14233.

The two registers are 1 day apart: the American entry is dated first, the Canadian one second.
These are the dates each register records against its own notice. They are separate administrative acts in two countries, recorded by two authorities under two sets of rules, and this page does not claim that one caused the other or that owners in either country were contacted on those days. What it shows is that the same manufacturer campaign reached the two registers on different dates.
Read the American notice 14V341, including every earlier version of its wording this site holds. The Canadian register explains why the manufacturer code is published there and what that makes possible. Canada and America sets every matched pair side by side.

On certain all-wheel-drive vehicles, a loss of grease from the centre constant velocity (CV) joint can over time result in vibrations of the propeller shaft and these vibrations could be transferred to the rollover sensor located on the floor above it. The signal produced by the vibrations in the rollover sensor may result in an unwarranted deployment of the curtain airbags creating a risk of injury to the occupants of the vehicle. Correction: Dealers are to replace the rear propeller shaft assembly.
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 2014244.
