Summary

Turtle Top is recalling certain model year 2013 Odyssey XL transit buses manufactured January 29, 2013, to July 9, 2013, built on Ford F-550 chassis, and equipped with Liquid Spring-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.

Safety Risk

If the suspension fluid tank mount fractures and the tank separates from the chassis, the tank may become a road hazard, increasing the risk of a crash.

Remedy

Turtle Top customers were notified by LiquidSpring, and LiquidSpring dealers will install a new re-designed bracket, free of charge. The recall began on September 9, 2014. Owners may contact Turtle Top customer service at 1-800-296-2105.

Additional Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
