1 recalls.

13V274000

Date: 2013-06-27. Systems: FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE, SUSPENSION.

Defect: 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.

Consequence: 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.

Remedy: 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.

Do not drive: No. Park outside: No.

Notes on this record

  • Complaints from the API and bulk file are merged and deduplicated by ODI number; the API alone misses records.
  • System and subsystem counts are numbers of distinct complaints, recalls or communications that name them. One record can name several systems, so shares across systems can add to more than 100 percent; a single share never exceeds 100 percent.
  • Recalls are counted once per campaign, investigations once per action and manufacturer communications once per NHTSA id, even when NHTSA lists several model names for the same record.
  • A sales denominator is a calendar-year proxy, not the population of vehicles still in use. Rates are copied from verified pipeline output.
