On certain snowmobiles, steering components could become damaged in a high-impact event. This could potentially result in damage to the pitman or idler arm, which could affect steering control, and increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will add steel plates to the pitman and idler arm assemblies to reduce the chance of component breakage.

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 Polaris: 197 in the register, and 620 Canadian vehicle recalls filed in 2015.
