Toyota YARIS in the other registers
This site holds seven national and European registers. Toyota YARIS is named on 10 American notices, 37 British, 39 European and 89 Israeli. Those are separate campaigns, filed with separate authorities on their own schedules.

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.

On certain vehicles, the front strut mount bearing components may be damaged when a high load is applied to the strut, such as when the vehicle is driven over a large bump. If the vehicle is operated with a damaged bearing, it could cause the upper strut rod assembly to separate, resulting in a loss of vehicle stability which would increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will replace the strut mounting bearing with improved ones. If damage is found on the bearing, dealers will also replace the strut and front suspension support sub-assembly.
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 2016256.

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 Toyota Yaris, 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 Toyota: 312 in the register, and 644 Canadian vehicle recalls filed in 2016.
