1997 Isuzu Npr

Defect. THE FRONT AXLE BRAKE HOSES WERE DAMAGED DURING TRANSPORTATION OF THE FRONT AXLE ASSEMBLY WITH THE BRAKE HOSES ATTACHED.

Risk. THIS DAMAGE COULD RESULT IN BRAKE FLUID LEAKAGE, REDUCING THE BRAKING EFFECTIVENESS AND INCREASING THE STOPPING DISTANCES.

Remedy. DEALERS WILL INSPECT THE FRONT AXLE BRAKE HOSES (RIGHT AND LEFT) AND ANY HOSE SHOWING DAMAGE WILL BE REPLACED.

CITY OF TEMPE ARIZONA IS FORCING VEHICLE OWNERS TO REDUCE THE OVERALL LENGTH OF THEIR VEHICLE (21 FEET) TO PARK AT THEIR HOMES. THE MOST ECONOMICAL WAY TO COMPLY IS TO CHOP IN THE MIDDLE TO KEEP THE TOW ARRANGEMENT WHICH WEAKENS THE STRENGTH AND INTEGRITY OF THE METAL CAUSING A HAZARD FOR THE PUBLIC. THIS INCLUDES TRAILERS IN TRAILER PARKS. *TR

WHILE THE CONSUMER WAS DRIVING, BOTH RIGHT REAR TIRES BLEW OUT CAUSING THE DRIVER TO LOSE CONTROL AND CRASH INTO THE WALL RESULTING IN FIRE, THERE WERE TWO INJURIES. (OHIO TRAFFIC CRASH REPORT) *YH

BACK LEFT OUTBOARD TIRE DELAMINATED ENTIRE TREAD CAME OFF 0N 8\30\99.... BOTH OF THE BACK LEFT TIRES REPLACED... ON 9\16\00 BACK RIGHT OUTBOARD TIRE DELAMINATED ... CONSIDERABLE AMOUNT OF DAMAGE DONE TO SPRAY PIPING.. REPLACED ALL OF THE 4 REMAINING TIRES. FAILURES WERE REPORTED TO THE DEALER. WAS ASSURED THAT GOODYEAR WOULD ADDRESS WITH MEW. THEY DID NOT. NOW I SEE WHY. *AK (TIRESIZE: 16 INCH)( DOT NUMBER: TIRE SIZE: 16 INCH )

FAN CLUTCH HAS GONE OUT TWO TIMES ALREADY. ISUZU TOLD US IN 98 THAT THE FAN CLUTCH WAS DEFECTIVE AND A NEW STYLE WAS TO BE BUILT. IN FEB OF 1999 THEY FINALLY CAN OUT WITH A NEW MODEL. TIME WILL TELL IF IT WAS A NEW MODEL OF ANOTHER LIE. WE ALSO HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THE ABS BRAKE WARNING CABLE BEING WORN THROUGH CAUSING LOSS OF ABS SYSTEM. MANUFACTURER SAYS IT WAS OUT OF WARRANTY, YET I CANT SEE WHY A BRAKE LINE TO WEAR THROUGH AT 84000 MILES ON HIGHWAY ROADS.
