Isuzu Trooper

On certain vehicles, after approximately nine or more years of use, the accelerator cable cover in the subject vehicles may deteriorate causing the cable rubber boot to adhere to the inner throttle cable.  This can cause the accelerator cable to delay RPM and vehicle speed reduction for several seconds after the accelerator pedal is released, which, in turn, can lead to a crash.  Correction:  Dealer will replace the throttle cable rubber boot.

On certain vehicles equipped with 4WD and torque-on-demand automatic transmission, in certain high speed frontal crashes, relative movement and abrasion of internal components can cause the potential for fuel leakage due to separation of the fuel hose and fuel line or a severed fuel hose.  Correction:  Dealers will install a revised fuel hose.

On certain vehicles, the front and rear output flange lock nuts of the Torque-On-Demand (TOD) 4WD system transfer case might not be staked.  In such cases there is the possibility that the lock nut may loosen, resulting in separation of the propeller shaft.  Correction:  Front and rear lock nuts of the TOD transfer case will be inspected for staking, tightened and, if necessary, the lock nut will be replaced.

VEHICLES MAY HAVE BEEN MANUFACTURED WITH INSUFFICIENT CLEARANCE BETWEEN THE LEFT FRONT BRAKE LINE AND THE UPPER CONTROL ARM OF THE SUSPENSION. THIS LINE COULD BECOME DAMAGED DURING VEHICLE OPERATION AND COULD RESULT IN BRAKE FLUID LEAKAGE, REDUCED BRAKING EFFECTIVENESS AND INCREASED STOPPING DISTANCES.
CORRECTION:  DEALERS WILL INSPECT THE CLEARANCE BETWEEN THE BRAKE LINE AND THE UPPER CONTROL ARM AND IF THE CLEARANCE IS NOT ACCORDING TO SPECIFICATION, THE BRAKE LINE WILL BE REPLACED.

THESE VEHICLES MAY HAVE BEEN MANUFACTURED WITHOUT A LOCK WASHER AND/OR SCREWS (3 PCS./WHEEL) FOR THE LOCK WASHER OF THE FRONT HUB BEARING ADJUSTMENT NUT.  THIS CONDITION MAY RESULT IN LOOSENING BETWEEN THE HUB AND THE KNUCKLE, POSSIBLY RESULTING IN BEARING SEIZURE.
CORRECTION:  DEALERS WILL INSPECT AND ENSURE THAT THE LOCK WASHERS AND SCREWS ARE SECURELY TIGHTENED.
