What happened

JELD-WEN has recalled certain molded white panel and flush natural wood grain interior bifold doors because the lower pivot pin can break, causing the door to disengage from the overhead track and create an impact hazard. The lower pivot pin is a metal screw that fits into a white plastic sleeve inserted into the bottom edge of the door during installation. Only doors with pivot pins that have 12 rectangular indentations in the collar at the end of the sleeve are subject to this recall.

If you have one of the affected doors, you should stop using them and contact JELD-WEN for assistance in identifying whether your doors are recalled and obtaining free replacement hardware and technical assistance. The source does not specify additional remedy steps beyond contacting the company.
