Hazard

The door open/close control program for the boarding/alighting door is inappropriate. When the driver performs certain operations during the process from running to stopping (shifting to N and opening the boarding/alighting door just before stopping), the function that prevents the door from opening while running remains engaged. Consequently, even after the vehicle stops and the driver operates the open/close switch to open, the door will not open.

②乗降扉の開閉制御プログラムが不適切なため、走行状態から停止に至る過程において運転者が一定条件の操作(シフトの位置をNにし、停止直前で乗降扉を開く操作)をした場合においては、走行中に扉が開くことを防止する機能が働いたままになり、停止してから運転者が手元の開閉スイッチを開に操作しても扉が開かない。

Remedy

Replace the relevant ECU on all vehicles with a corrected unit. Additionally, inspect the position of the closer switch and adjust the position if found to be inappropriate.
