Recall 90V-067: 1983–1987 Mobile Medical Ambulance
MOBILE MEDICAL recall for structure, reported to NHTSA on Apr 9, 1990, covering about 270 vehicles.
The problem
Entry doors may not meet longitudinal load requirements due to omission of mushroom cap on the striker pin, required by FMVSS 206.
The risk
Under severe conditions, such as extreme impact to the modular box or a rollover, doors could separate from the pin and open; this would allow occupants to be expelled from ambulance if not secured by safety belts.
The fix
Install new striker pins that meet FMVSS 206 requirements.
Notes
System: doors;FMVSS 206.vehicle description: ambulances.
