Filing in context

The Clutch is the most frequently cited component category in this archive, appearing in 31 of its 4,890 filings. This filing is one of 46 Isuzu notifications from 2013 in this archive. For scale, 2,243 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 2 months.
Defect
In the automated 6-speed manual mode transmission, the clutch disc bush has insufficient strength. Repeated clutch operation causes the bush to break, and the resulting fragments become lodged between the clutch cover and the clutch disc, preventing the clutch from disengaging. As a result, a warning light illuminates, protective control locks the gear in place, and the transmission becomes unable to shift.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, replace the affected clutch disc with the corrected part and replace the clutch cover with a new one.
