Eldorado Mobility recall: Fuel system, gasoline
What is wrong
Eldorado Mobility Inc. (Eldorado Mobility) is recalling certain 2010-2017 Amerivan vehicles. The crimp fasteners that secure the fuel line connectors may not be fully crimped, allowing fuel to leak.
What could happen
A fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source can increase the risk of a fire.

Eldorado Mobility will notify owners, and dealers will replace the fuel lines, free of charge. Owners may contact Eldorado Mobility customer service at 1-800-955-9086.
