On certain aerial devices installed on utility service vehicles (to elevate personnel in order to facilitate working on overhead service lines, for tree trimming, etc.), unintended boom movement could occur in severe cold temperature operation if hydraulic oil warm-up procedures are not followed. This could allow the aerial device to move unexpectedly, which could result in property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Preset pressure transducers will be added or updated as necessary. Owners may contact Altec at 1-877-462-5832.
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 2015004.

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 Altec: 89 in the register, and 620 Canadian vehicle recalls filed in 2015.
