NHTSA recall 14V687000 · announced October 31, 2014 · filed by Eldorado National- Kansas · 2 units affected

The problem

Eldorado National-Kansas (Eldorado) is recalling certain model year 2013 Aero Elite vehicles manufactured May 6, 2013, to June 6, 2013. The affected vehicles are equipped with LiquidSpring-brand aftermarket suspension kits. The mounting bracket that attaches the suspension fluid tank to the frame may fail, allowing the fluid tank to separate from the vehicle.

The risk

If the suspension fluid tank mount fractures and the tank separates from the chassis, the tank may become a road hazard, increasing the risk of a crash.

What to do

Eldorado has notified owners, and LiquidSpring will install a re-designed bracket, free of charge. The recall began in November 2014. Owners may contact Eldorado customer service at 1-800-850-1287 or LiquidSpring at 1-765-474-7816.
