Plain-English summary

Isuzu Motors Limited is recalling certain 2023-2024 NPR Gas, NPR HD Gas, 2024 NQR Gas, NRR Gas, Chevrolet LCF 3500HG, Chevrolet LCF 4500HG, Chevrolet LCF 5500HG, and Chevrolet LCF 5500XG vehicles. The recall involves 19,479 units. The defect is an incorrectly sized wire seal for the two externally mounted engine ignition coil pack fuse holders on the chassis harness. This issue can allow water to intrude, causing the fuses to corrode.

Corrosion of the ignition coil pack fuses can cause a misfire and loss of engine power, which increases the risk of a crash. No specific injuries or fatalities are reported in the source text, but the potential for loss of power while driving presents a safety hazard.

Dealers will replace both engine ignition coil pack fuse holder assemblies free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on January 30, 2024. Owners may contact Isuzu customer service at 1-866-441-9638 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236. Isuzu's recall number is V2305.
