AROW Recalls MV210 Emergency Exit Windows Due to Latch Failure Risk

AROW Global Corp is recalling MV210 emergency exit windows because the latch can fail during a crash, potentially allowing the window to open and increasing injury risk.

What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a structural vehicle defect (emergency exit window latch) that increases the risk of injury during a crash, but the source text does not report any actual injuries or fatalities, fitting the 'High' severity criteria for risk-of-harm products where injury has not yet been reported.

Plain-English summary

AROW Global Corp is recalling certain MV210 emergency exit windows. The defect involves the emergency exit window latch, which can fail and allow the window to open during a crash. This failure means the windows do not comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 217, "Bus Emergency Exits and Window Retention and Release."

A window that opens during a crash may not properly retain passengers as intended, increasing the risk of injury. The source text does not report any specific injuries or fatalities associated with this defect.

AROW will provide a replacement black latch free of charge to correct the issue. Owner notification letters were mailed on June 27, 2024. Owners may contact AROW customer service at 715-693-6020 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
