Filing in context

This is the only filing in the archive that cites the Other (frame / body) as the affected component. This filing is one of 33 Isuzu notifications from 2019 in this archive.

Defect

On medium-duty trucks, the side-hung spare tire carrier has an improperly shaped suspension plate. When a tire mounted on an aluminum wheel is secured to the carrier, driving vibration can cause the spare tire to rotate. This rotation creates interference between the carrier chain and the suspension plate, wearing the chain until it fractures. In the worst case, the spare tire detaches from the vehicle.

Corrective action

On all vehicles, replace the spare tire carrier with a corrected part.
