Filing in context
The Frame is the most frequently cited component category in this archive, appearing in 39 of its 4,890 filings. This filing is one of 13 Isuzu notifications from 1999 in this archive. For scale, 3,228 of the 4,890 filings in this archive report a larger number of affected vehicles; the vehicles involved here were manufactured over a span of about 3 years and 9 months.
Defect
The frame has insufficient strength. If the bush of the radius rod connecting the left-side frame to the axle is damaged, the load on that mounting point increases, causing a crack to develop in the frame. In the worst case, the frame may fracture and the vehicle may become inoperable.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, reinforce the frame and replace the radius rod bush with a corrected part.
