On certain vehicles equipped with factory-installed methane detectors, the sensor wiring circuit protection may be inadequate for the wiring gauge. The wiring harness may also be improperly routed. As a result, a short could occur and the circuit protection could fail to protect the electrical system from damage, potentially resulting in a fire. This could increase the risk of injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Sensor wiring routing will be inspected and modified, and a 3 amp fuse installed in place or the original 10 amp fuse.
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 2018131.

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 Autocar Xpeditor, 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 Autocar: 62 in the register, and 704 Canadian vehicle recalls filed in 2018.
