Filing in context
The Suspension Arm / Rod is the most frequently cited component category in this archive, appearing in 34 of its 4,890 filings. This filing is one of 46 Isuzu notifications from 2010 in this archive. For scale, 2,015 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 8 months.
Defect
On large trucks equipped with air spring suspension, the V-rod bushings that secure the rear axle to the frame are improperly dimensioned. Repeated large inputs, such as crossing road edges or bumps, cause the outer surface of the bushing to wear. Continued operation in this condition can damage the V-rod and, in the worst case, compromise vehicle driving stability.
Corrective action
Replace the V-rod on all vehicles with a corrected part.
