Transport Canada carries this recall as 2015023, dated 22 January 2015. The American register carries the same defect as campaign 15V031, dated 26 January 2015. They are the same defect because the manufacturer filed both under one internal campaign code, 14857.

The two registers are 4 days apart: the Canadian entry is dated first, the American 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 15V031, 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 vehicles, the right rear toe link outer ball joint may not have been properly fastened to the knuckle. This may result in rear suspension noise, particularly when travelling around corners or over bumps or potholes. Over time, if the vehicle is continually operated with this condition, the toe link could separate from the knuckle, causing sudden vehicle instability and increasing the risk of a crash causing personal injury or property damage. Dealers will inspect and replace any damaged parts as necessary. If no damage is noted, the dealer will reassemble the toe link with a new fastener and tighten to specification.
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 2015023.
