The manufacturer accepted that the vehicle does not meet a standard and asked to be excused from recalling it, on the argument that the difference makes no practical difference to safety.
It is the most interesting word in the register. Somebody built a vehicle that broke a rule, agreed that they had, and argued the rule did not matter here. Sometimes that is obviously right - a label in the wrong typeface. Sometimes it is an argument. Either way the notice is public, and this is the list of them.
How often it appears
The Canadian register carries 236 notices filed under Inconsequential, between 2000 and 2026. The phrase is Transport Canada's own; the explanation above is this site's.
