Isuzu NRR recalls

• Electrical#2026386August 6, 2026

  3,800 units affected

  Issue: On certain trucks, the chassis and cab wiring harnesses may not have been routed properly. As result, the wiring could become damaged by contact with nearby components and cause a short circuit. If this happens, there could be a loss of power to the wheels, the electronic parking brake could stop working, the tail lamps may not work, the airbag warning light may turn on, transmission shifting issues could occur, or the combination switch may not work. Note: This recall replaces Transport Canada recall no. 2026-158. Trucks that were repaired under that recall also require this repair. Safety Risk: A short circuit can create the risk of a fire. A loss of power to the wheels and the other issues could increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: Isuzu will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your truck to a dealership to inspect and, if necessary, repair or replace the wiring harnesses. The dealer will also ensure that the wiring harnesses are secured properly.

  Issue: On certain trucks, the antilock braking system (ABS) module and, if equipped, the optional advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) camera may not have been recalibrated after a modification to extend the truck frame. As a result, some vehicle safety systems may not work properly. This can include the automatic emergency braking system (AEBS), adaptative cruise control (ACC) and electronic stability control (ESC). Note: This recall only affects trucks with a 200" or 212" wheelbase. Safety Risk: Vehicle safety systems that do not work correctly could increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: Isuzu will notify owners by mail and instruct them to take their truck to a dealership to recalibrate the ABS module and, if equipped, the ADAS camera.

Safety Risk: A sudden loss of engine power could increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: Isuzu will notify owners by mail. For unsold trucks, an Isuzu dealer will repair the engine harness wiring assembly connector before it is sold. For vehicles that have been sold, the corrective actions are still under development.

• Wheels#2019586November 20, 2019

  451 units affected

  Issue: On certain trucks, the lug nuts on the rear-outer wheels were not properly tightened during assembly. This could cause the nuts to loosen or fall off, and could result in a wheel separating from the vehicle. Safety Risk: A wheel separation could increase the risk of a crash. A wheel that detaches from a vehicle could create a hazard for other drivers and nearby people. Corrective Actions: Isuzu will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your truck to a dealer to inspect the rear-outer wheel lug nuts and tighten them or install new ones, as necessary.

• Lights And Instruments#2019052February 6, 2019

  22 units affected

  Issue: On certain vehicles, the odometer display may show the units of distance as miles instead of kilometers. The actual number display is in kilometers. Safety Risk: While the safety risk is minimal, Canadian regulations require that kilometers are displayed. Corrective Actions: The company will send a letter to owners. The letter will ask them to inspect the odometer. If kilometers are displayed, the customer should tell Isuzu and no other action is needed. If miles are displayed, the owner should take their vehicle to a dealer to have the instrument cluster replaced. The new odometer will be programmed to show the number of kilometers traveled.

• Suspension#2017173March 24, 2017

  4,539 units affected

  On certain vehicles, the left rear wheel bearing hub locking bolts may not have been properly torqued during assembly. This could cause the bolts to loosen and break, which could allow the wheel assembly to move outwards from the axle housing. If this occurs, the vehicle could become more difficult to control and braking distances would increase which could result in a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect and tighten the rear left wheel bearing hub locking bolts as necessary.

• Powertrain#2017088February 17, 2017

  1,308 units affected

  On certain vehicles, a burr could impede contact between the transmission mounting bracket and the chassis cross member. This could cause the fasteners to shear or break, allowing the transmission to move out of position and impair or prevent shifting, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect the bolted connection and install a shim if necessary.

• Powertrain#2013408November 18, 2013

  67 units affected

  Certain trucks equipped with an automatic transmission could experience a sudden transmission failure. This would result in a loss of vehicle propulsion which, in conjunction with traffic and road conditions, and the driver’s reactions, could increase the risk of a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will replace the transmission assembly. Note: This is an expansion of recall 2013-165 for vehicles not previously included in the campaign.

• Electrical#2013212June 19, 2013

  743 units affected

  On certain vehicles equipped with an oil pan heater, over time, dust, dirt and moisture may collect at the contact point between the oil pan heater cord and the extension cord. As a result, the extension cord could overheat, which may melt the oil pan heater plug and/or block heater plug (if equipped). This could result in a fire causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will inspect and clean the oil pan heater plug and the engine block heater plug (if equipped). Heat damaged plugs will be replaced. In addition, dealers will replace the extension cord and advise owners to store the cord indoors when not in use.
