THIS HAS HAPPENED TO FOUR DIFFERENT VEHICLES ALL THE SAME MAKE AND MODEL. THE METAL BEHIND THE STRIKER POST IS TOO WEAK AND CRACKS OUT. THIS ALLOWS THE DOOR TO BREAK FREE AND SWING OPEN. THIS CREATES A VERY REAL POSSIBILITY OF A FIREFIGHTER FALLING FROM THE APPARATUS. FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ANDY NEYLON, ARLINGTON, TEXAS FIRE DEPARTMENT AT 817-459
