Isuzu Recall 17V-105: Structure – frame and members

Affected: 2015–2017 Isuzu NPR HD, 2015–2017 Isuzu NPR XD, 2015–2017 Isuzu NQR and 1 more. Filed with NHTSA on February 17, 2017, covering about 21,000 vehicles.

The problem

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.

The risk

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

The fix

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.
