Recall 1997121

The issue

THE EMERGENCY EXIT WINDOWS ON THESE VEHICLES MAY HAVE BEEN PRODUCED WITHOUT THE UPPER HINGE LOCKING MECHANISM. THIS COULD CAUSE THE WINDOWS TO SEPARATE FROM THE VEHICLE WHEN OPENED TO AN APPROXIMATELY 90 DEGREE ANGLE. CORRECTION: STOPPER BLOCKS WILL BE INSTALLED TO PREVENT SEPARATION OF THE EMERGENCY WINDOWS.

Description (français)

Il se peut que les fenêtres-issues de secours de ces véhicules ne soient pas dotées du mécanisme de verrouillage de la charnière supérieure. Il se pourrait donc que ces fenêtres se détachent du véhicule quand on les ouvre à un angle d’environ 90 degrés.Correction : Des butées devront être installées pour empêcher les fenêtres-issues de secours de se détacher.
