Transport Canada carries this recall as 2014592, dated 30 December 2014. The American register carries the same defect as campaign 14V823, dated 29 December 2014. They are the same defect because the manufacturer filed both under one internal campaign code, 5912232014.

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 14V823, 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 travel trailers, the certification and tire and loading information labels do not contain correct tire load range and inflation pressure information. The labels incorrectly indicate a tire size of ST225/75R15 with load range C and 345 kPa (50 PSI) inflation pressure while the correct tire load range is D with 448 kPa (65 PSI). As a result, the vehicle may inadvertently be fitted with incorrect replacement tires. Overloaded tires may lead to poor vehicle handling characteristics, which could result in 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 2014592.
