Lakota CHARGER in the other registers
This site holds seven national and European registers. Lakota CHARGER is named on 10 American notices. Those are separate campaigns, filed with separate authorities on their own schedules.

On certain trailers, the bolts used to install the rear ramps, side ramps and ramp doors may break. This could result in the ramps and/or ramp doors to potentially come loose while the trailer is in motion, which could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or property damage. Correction: Dealers will install different bolts to ensure the ramps and ramp doors are secured to the trailer.

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 Lakota Bighorn, 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 Lakota: 14 in the register, and 704 Canadian vehicle recalls filed in 2018.
