TriMark Corporation (TriMark) is recalling certain door striker bolts, model number 070-0100, assembled into door systems for ambulance manufacturers and distributors. The striker bolts may fail under load allowing the doors to open in the event of a crash. As such, these bolts fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 206, "Door locks and door retention components."
If a door opens in a crash there would be an increased risk of injury.
TriMark will notify the purchasers of the door systems, and will provide replacement Striker Bolts, free of charge. The manufacturer has not yet provided a notification schedule. Owners may contact Trimark customer service at 1-641-394-3188.
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
