The same recall in other countries
This campaign carries a manufacturer code that also appears in another country’s register, which means the same defect was recalled there too.
- Canada: Transport Canada recall 2023620, recorded 21 November 2023 (within a week of the American filing)
- European Union: Safety Gate alert A12/02954/23, published 1 December 2023, raised by Belgium (the Commission’s own page) (10 days after the American filing)
Matched on R10254, the manufacturer’s own number for this campaign, which is the only field the registers share. Exact match, nothing paired on brand and date. The two dates are adjacent instruments rather than the same one, so a difference of a day or two means nothing.
