Canada: Transport Canada, as of 2026-10-19
20032502003-10-21. Steering. On certain vehicles, a longitudinal crack in the steer arm assembly may intersect a tapered hole that is machined into the part and used to mount the draglink ball stud to the steer arm. If this crack should propagate, the ball stud could become loose resulting in a loss of steering. Correction: Dealer will replace the knuckle and steer arm assemblies.
20031872003-08-07. Suspension. On certain vehicles, the locking tab that locks the outer spindle nut onto the spindle was not engaged or properly bent over. Failure to properly engage the locking feature into the nut may cause the nut to loosen which will eventually cause the wheel bearing to over heat and fail if undetected. If the loose nut is not detected, the outer end (tire, wheel and hub assembly) could become separated from the vehicle. Correction: Dealer will inspect the hubs to determine if the locking tabs are properly bent.
20031212003-05-05. Other. On certain vehicles, fatigue cracks can initiate in the weld joining the bracket pin to its mounting flange on the fifth wheel assembly. Weld failures could lead to the loss of the pin and the potential separation of the fifth wheel top plate from its mounting structure without warning. Correction: Dealers will replace the bracket pins.

A campaign lists a year, a make and a model, and often only some of the vehicles built. A list with nothing on it is not a clearance either. The lookups below check one VIN.
