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.
