What is wrong
Eldorado National-Kansas (ENK) is recalling certain model year 2011-2013 Amerivan Toyota Sienna vans manufactured February 17, 2011, through June 25, 2013. The fuel filler neck may contact the left rear shock absorber. This could damage the fuel filler neck.
What could happen
If the shock makes contact with the fuel filler neck, it could damage the neck allowing it to leak gasoline vapors and result in a fire or explosion causing personal injury.
The fix
ENK will notify owners, and dealers will relocate the shock absorbers and add a spacer, free of charge. The recall began on July 12, 2013. Owners may contact Eldorado National-Kansas at 1-800-955-9086.
