What is being recalled

Landi Renzo USA is recalling certain model year 2011-2014 Ford E-150, E-250, and E-350 vehicles modified January 2, 2011, through February 24, 2014 to operate on compressed natural gas (CNG). In the affected vehicles, the left and right rear brackets that support the rear CNG cylinder may fail, allowing the cylinder to dislodge from the vehicle.

Why it is dangerous

If the cylinder dislodges, a CNG leak may result, increasing the risk of a fire.

The fix (free at any franchised dealer)

Landi Renzo USA will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and replace the side arm brackets, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on March 27, 2014. Owners may contact Landi Renzo USA at 1-855-526-3400.

Recall repairs are always free, regardless of vehicle age or where you bought the car. Quote the campaign number 14V-097 when calling a dealer.
