Isuzu FTR recalls
Risk: A detached axle stabilizer bracket can create a road hazard for other vehicles, increasing the risk of a crash.
Risk: A fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source increases the risk of a fire.
Risk: Tie rod failure can cause a loss of vehicle steering control and increase the risk of a crash.
Risk: Overloaded electrical circuits can overheat, increasing the risk of fire. In addition, wiring damage may cause a loss of turn signal, hazard lights, and/or collision system function, increasing the risk of a crash.
Risk: Without engine braking, a driver may experience longer stopping distances than expected, increasing the risk of a crash.
Risk: There is no pawl to engage when the transmission shift lever is set to the park position, which could lead to the truck rolling away, increasing the risk of a crash.
Risk: A fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source can increase the risk of a fire. Air intake into the fuel hose increases the risk of engine stalling, increasing the risk of a crash.
Risk: An unexpected change in turning radius and difficulty steering can increase the risk of a crash.
Risk: If the cable is broken and repeated attempts are made to start the vehicle, the starter may ground through the steel braiding of the power steering hose, allowing it to heat up and possibly rupture, increasing the risk of a fire.
Risk: Depending on which wires get damaged, the vehicle can experience stalling and/or reduced functionality of the ABS, increasing the risk of a crash.
Risk: A stall can increase the risk of a crash.
Risk: If the vehicle's turning radius is increased, there is an increased risk of a crash.
Risk: If the cab tilts forward while driving, it can increase the risk of a crash or injury.
