Pierce SABER in the other registers
This site holds seven national and European registers. Pierce SABER is named on 10 American notices. Those are separate campaigns, filed with separate authorities on their own schedules.
The American register
Nothing here says any of these is this notice in another country. A model recalled in one country is often recalled in another, in different words and at a different time, and the authorities do not cross-reference each other. Reading them together is the reason this site holds more than one register.

Certain vehicles may have improperly installed heater core hose clamps which could allow engine coolant to leak into the passenger compartment and come in contact with electrical components. This could result in an electrical short, causing the vehicle to lose power and increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Hot coolant could also come in contact with the occupants of the vehicle and cause burn injuries. Correction: Dealers will inspect and reinstall the hose clamps properly.
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 2016173.

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 notice names one vehicle among several registers that have written about it. Every notice this site holds for the Pierce Enforcer, in all seven, is kept on that vehicle's own page, with the newest in each.
This register keeps an index of its own for every maker and every year it holds: Canadian recalls on a Pierce: 38 in the register, and 644 Canadian vehicle recalls filed in 2016.
