2026 Mercedes-Benz Tourrider Business & 2026 Mercedes-Benz Tourrider Premium recall: door latches & locks
⚠️ What's wrong
Daimler Coaches North America (Daimler Coaches) is recalling certain 2026 Mercedes Benz Tourrider Business and Premium transit buses. The door control valve may not release the self holding mechanism, preventing the door from opening.
💥 The risk
A door that cannot be opened can prevent or delay passengers from evacuating during an emergency, increasing the risk of injury.
🔧 The fix
Daimler Coaches will replace the door control valve, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed April 2, 2026. Owners may contact Daimler Coaches' customer service at 1-416-624-3558. Daimler Coaches' number for this recall is 72.40U26365A.
Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
