Summary

Isuzu Technical Center of America, Inc. "Isuzu" is recalling certain model year 2016 NPR-HD, NPR-XD, NQR, and NRR trucks manufactured July 3, 2015, to September 2, 2015 and equipped with 5.2L diesel engines. The certification label on the affected vehicles may have typographical errors in the rim size, tire pressure and weight information that may prevent the owner from accurately loading and maintaining the vehicle. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of 49 CFR Part 567, "Certification."

Consequence

If the rim size, tire pressure and weight information cannot be referenced and understood, the owner may overload the vehicle or underinflate the tires. These conditions may increase the risk of a crash.

Remedy

Isuzu will provide owners with a corrected certification label, free of charge. The recall began on April 25, 2016. Owners may contact Isuzu customer service at 1-866-441-9638.

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 'TTY 1-800-424-9153', or go to www.safercar.gov.
