2009–2012 Morgan Olson Walk IN VAN recall: door latches & locks

⚠️ What's wrong

Certain model year 2009-2012 morgan olson walk-in VAN type vehicles, manufactured from september 1, 2009, through february 2, 2012, with sliding front side doors, have door LATCH systems that fail to meet the strength requirements of S4.2.1.1(a) of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 206, "door locks and door retention components," and therefore do not comply.
