The British register
The European register

Reading them together is the reason this site holds more than one register.

On certain ATV's, the base model Owners’ and Service manuals were printed with incorrect tire pressure information, while on certain "Hunter" model variants, the compliance label affixed to the ATV contains incorrect tire pressure information. If an owner were to rely on the incorrect values and inflate the tires accordingly, it could affect vehicle handling and stability, which could result in loss of control, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Depending on the model, owners will either be mailed updated manuals or labels stating the correct tire pressure information.
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 2017403.

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 638 Canadian vehicle recalls filed in 2017.
