Unsafe condition

This AD was prompted by reports of operator inability to open the main passenger door following severe hot soak conditions. We are issuing this AD to prevent thermal expansion and permanent deformation at severe hot soak conditions, creating high friction between the spring pot housing and the slider that could result in inability to open the main passenger door that could impede evacuation in the event of an emergency.

Affected ADs

None.
