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 44 Isuzu notifications from 2005 in this archive. For scale, 1,966 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 4 years and 8 months.
Defect
On vehicles equipped with air springs, the rear-axle stabilizer mounting bracket is improperly shaped, causing excessive stress in the frame at the bracket attachment point during cornering. This stress may produce a crack in the frame. If the vehicle continues to be operated in this condition, the crack will progress and, in the worst case, the bracket may detach and vehicle handling stability will be compromised.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, replace the mounting bracket with the corrected part. Where a crack is already present, repair the crack and add a reinforcement plate.
