Transport Canada carries this recall as 2017040, dated 25 January 2017. The American register carries the same defect as campaign 17V053, dated 24 January 2017. They are the same defect because the manufacturer filed both under one internal campaign code, 17C01.

The two registers are 1 day apart: the American entry is dated first, the Canadian 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 17V053, 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.

Certain vehicles may fail to conform to Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (CMVSS) 102 - Transmission Control Functions. Immediately after an engine start-up in cold ambient temperatures, operators may experience a loss of instrument cluster display functionality, including the loss of PRNDL illumination, jittering gauge pointers and flashing on/off warning lights. This could result in the instrument panel cluster not illuminating and not displaying the selected transmission gear position, which could result in unintended vehicle movement, increasing the risk of injury and/or property damage. Correction: Dealers will reprogram the instrument cluster. Note: An inoperative instrument panel cluster may also prevent the activation of certain warning chimes, messages and warning lights.
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 2017040.
