The short answer

NHTSA received CHANCE COACH, INC.’s report on Nov 24, 1993. Copied from NHTSA on Oct 27, 2026.

Every line below is in NHTSA’s own words, with its source beside it.

What’s wrong with it?

IF THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION AS THE DOORS ARE PUSHED OPEN,THE PARKING BRAKES WILL SET, STOPPING THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY. THIS COULD RESULT ININJURIES TO STANDING PASSENGERS. IF THE DOORS CAN BE PUSHED OPEN WIDE ENOUGH,A PASSENGER MAY FALL OUT OF THE MOVING VEHICLE, CAUSING SERIOUS INJURIES.

THE PASSENGER ACCESS DOORS ARE EQUIPPED WITH DIFFERENTIAL AIR MOTORS FOR THE DOOR OPENING AND CLOSING OPERATION.

DUE TO THE SIZE AND CONSTRUCTION OF THE DOORS, THE MOTORS THAT HOLD THE DOORS CLOSED CAN BE OVERPOWERED AND THE DOORS CAN BE FORCED OPEN BY A PASSENGER PUSHING AGAINST THEM.

What should you do?

AN UNLOADER KIT WILL BE ADDED TO DUMP THE AIR OFF OF THE SMALL CYLINDER SIDE OF THE DOOR MOTOR TO INSURE THAT THE DOORS ARE POSITIVELY LOCKED AND CANNOT BE FORCED OPEN.

What the record doesn’t say

  • NHTSA’s recall file doesn’t say whether anyone was hurt.
  • Whether one vehicle or seat has been fixed: only its maker, or NHTSA’s lookup with a VIN, can say.
  • This recall names only model years before 2015, which have no pages here. Your VIN, at NHTSA, says which recalls are open on a vehicle.
  • How many have been returned or fixed isn’t in the notice.
