Defect

On swing doors of large touring buses, the fastening structure of the bracket used to attach the swing arm to the door is improperly designed. This allows the nut securing the swing arm to the bracket to loosen and the bolt to fracture, preventing the door from closing securely. In the worst case, the door may detach from the vehicle.

Corrective action

Replace the bracket and nut on all vehicles with corrected parts and replace the bolt with a new part. On certain vehicles, a washer will also be added.
