Issue

On certain buses, the software installed that controls the electronic door controller assemblies may be incorrect. The software programming in the controller may misinterpret door operational status from the vehicle multiplex system. If the driver were to initiate the doors open option as the bus accelerates from a stop, this could allow the passenger doors to reopen. If this were to occur while the vehicle is in motion, an occupant could fall from the vehicle and sustain injuries. Correction: Dealers will update the vehicle software.
