Recall 2011336

The issue

On certain fire trucks, the door latch fasteners may not have received adequate tightening torque during the manufacturing process. As a result, the outer door handle may rotate out of position, allowing a retention spring to dislocate, which could cause the door to open during a vehicle crash. Should this occur, unbelted occupants could fall out of the vehicle and sustain personal injury. Correction: E-One service centers will replace the door latch assemblies.

Description (français)

Sur certains camions de pompier, les dispositifs de fixation de loquet de porte pourraient ne pas avoir été adéquatement serrés pendant la fabrication. En conséquence, la poignée de porte extérieure pourrait pivoter hors-position, ce qui permettrait à un ressort de retenue de se déplacer et à la porte de s'ouvrir lors d'un accident. Si cela se produisait, les personnes non attachées pourraient tomber du véhicule et être blessées. Correction : Les centres de service E-One devront remplacer les loquets de porte.
