Defect
On transit bus glide-slide doors, cracks may develop in the spring pins that secure the bracket — which transmits force from the door air cylinder — to the pivot shaft that opens and closes the door. Continued use in this condition can cause the spring pins to fracture. In the worst case, both spring pins fracture simultaneously, causing the door to open while the vehicle is in motion or making it impossible for the driver to operate the door from the driver's seat.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, replace the spring pins with new units as an interim measure. Once a permanent corrective part is determined, the interim parts are replaced with the permanent solution.

状況
路線バスのグライドスライド扉において、扉開閉用エアシリンダーの力を伝えるブラケットと扉を開閉させる回転軸を固定しているスプリングピンに亀裂が発生するものがある。そのため、そのままの状態で使用を続けると、スプリングピンが折損し、最悪の場合、スプリングピンが２本ともに折損することで、走行中に扉が開く、または、運転者席からの扉の開閉操作ができなくなるおそれがある。
改善措置
全車両、暫定措置としてスプリングピンを新品と交換する。なお、対策が決定し次第、恒久対策品と交換する。
