Filing in context

The Other (Control System) is the most frequently cited component category in this archive, appearing in 46 of its 4,890 filings. This filing is one of 31 Isuzu notifications from 2021 in this archive. For scale, 2,592 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 3 years and 2 months.

Issue

In the driver assistance system, the forward obstacle pre-collision mitigation control program within the driver assistance ECU is incorrectly calibrated, causing the system to misidentify highway tunnel lighting as a forward moving object. When this occurs, a proximity warning tone sounds and the brake may momentarily activate.

Corrective action

On all vehicles, update the driver assistance control program to a corrected/updated software specification.
