Filing in context
This filing is one of 31 Honda notifications from 2014 in this archive. For scale, 1,608 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 1 year and 5 months.
Issue
On vehicles equipped with a boarding/alighting slope, the hinge bracket mounting bolts that secure the slope to the vehicle body are tightened to an incorrect torque. Over time, these bolts may loosen during use. As a result, the slope may detach when extended or while in use.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, replace the mounting bolts with bolts coated with a thread-locking compound and tighten to the specified torque.
