POWER TRAIN

Issued by Isuzu Technical Center of America, Inc. · Reported Feb 17, 2017 · 21,000 vehicles affected

What's wrong

Isuzu Technical Center of America, Inc. (Isuzu) is recalling certain 2015-2017 NPR HD, NPR XD, NQR and NRR trucks. During manufacturing, the stamping equipment may have created burrs on the frame crossmember that the transmission is mounted to. These burrs may cause the transmission mounting studs to break.

Consequence

If the studs break, the transmission may not be properly supported, preventing it from shifting correctly and increasing the risk of a crash.

Remedy

Isuzu will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the vehicles and install a metal shim to prevent stress on the mounting studs, free of charge. The recall on April 17, 2017. Owners may contact Isuzu customer service at 1-866-441-9638.
