Filing in context
The Propeller shaft is the most frequently cited component category in this archive, appearing in 17 of its 4,890 filings. This filing is one of 12 Isuzu notifications from 2001 in this archive. For scale, 2,603 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 1 year and 1 month.
Defect
Misaligned welds on the propeller shaft result in insufficient joint strength. In the worst case, the weld separates, causing the shaft to spin freely and rendering the vehicle inoperable.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, inspect the propeller shaft weld position. Replace any shaft where the weld position falls outside the specified value with a non-defective part.
