NHTSA recall 98V170000
Electrical System · Isuzu Motors Limited
Details
What's wrong: A ground connection terminal was not properly crimped in the supplier's engine wiring harness manufacturing line. This improper crimping process can leave an impression on the terminal that will eventually cause a stress fracture. S
Why it matters: If a terminal is fractured, the powertrain control module (PCM) can receive an erroneous signal indicating a high vehicle speed, thereby causing the PCM to cut the fuel, causing a 'no-start' condition, or a possible engine stall.
The fix: Dealers will replace the wiring harness on these vehicles.
