Both registers carry the same date for this defect.
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 15V614, 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 equipped with Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC), when the ACC is engaged, the driver may experience unexpected braking while passing a large, highly reflective vehicle. An unexpected ACC braking event could increase the risk of a crash involving a trailing vehicle. During this unexpected braking event, the Collision Warning System red warning light may also flash and an audible tone may be heard. Correction: Dealers will reprogram the cruise control module with updated ACC radar software. Note: The brake lights would illuminate while the brakes are applied by the ACC system, and the driver could still override the ACC system at any time using the accelerator pedal, brake pedal or by cancelling ACC through the steering wheel switches.
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 2015440.
