Filing in context
The Door is the most frequently cited component category in this archive, appearing in 103 of its 4,890 filings. This filing is one of 26 Hino notifications from 2011 in this archive. For scale, 2,154 of the 4,890 filings in this archive report a larger number of affected vehicles; the vehicles involved here were manufactured over a span of about 5 years and 8 months.
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.
