Eldorado National- Kansas recall 15V556000

Eldorado National-Kansas (Eldorado) is recalling certain model year 2015 Amerivan vehicles built on Toyota Sienna chassis manufactured July 1, 2015, to August 20, 2015. In the affected vehicles, the Toyota seat belt tab may not properly latch to the Amerivan's Qstem seat belt buckle assembly. As a result, the seat belt may unlatch unexpectedly when pulled on. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 210, "Seat Belt Assembly Anchorage."

Reported 09/03/2015

What can happen

If the seat belt unlatches, the occupant would not be properly restrained and is at an increased risk of injury in the event of a crash.

Repair

Eldorado will notify owners, and dealers will install a new Q-stem assembly with an alternate buckle assembly, free of charge. The recall began on October 7, 2015. Owners may contact Eldorado customer service at 1-785-827-1033.
