Filing in context
The Other (Engine) is the most frequently cited component category in this archive, appearing in 46 of its 4,890 filings. This filing is one of 35 Isuzu notifications from 2006 in this archive. For scale, 2,896 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
On vehicles with refrigerated/freezer bodies, the tension pulley bracket for the refrigeration unit drive belt has insufficient strength and may fracture. Continued use can then cause the additional bracket retaining the pulley to fracture as well. In the worst case, the pulley may detach from the vehicle and become a hazard to other traffic.
Corrective action
Replace the tension pulley bracket on all vehicles with a corrected part. Also replace the air conditioner compressor mounting bracket, which shares the tension pulley and its retaining bracket, with a new part.
