What this means for you

Illness, injury, or structural failure has been reported. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Plain-English summary

Isuzu Motors Limited is recalling certain 2022 FTR vehicles equipped with Allison 2500RDS (FVR) transmissions. The recall addresses a defect where the transmission is missing the parking pawl.

The missing component means there is no pawl to engage when the transmission shift lever is set to the park position. This condition could lead to the truck rolling away, which increases the risk of a crash.

Dealers will replace the 2500RDS (FVR) transmission with a 2550RDS (FTR) transmission free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed on August 12, 2022. Owners may contact Isuzu's customer service at 1-866-441-9638 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
