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

On certain infant car seats, the buckle may become contaminated with foreign material, such as food or dried liquids, and may over time become progressively more difficult to unlatch or become stuck in the latched position. If this occurs, users may experience difficulty unlatching or be unable to unlatch the buckle, which could increase the risk of injury in an emergency situation. Correction: Registered owners will be sent a letter containing proper care instructions and information on how to obtain a replacement buckle. Non-registered owners of affected car seats, or owners who have moved should contact Evenflo at 1-800-490-7591, or register online at www.embracebuckle.evenflo.com.

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 Evenflo: 50 in the register, and 591 Canadian vehicle recalls filed in 2014.
