1988 Isuzu I Mark

Component

Engine And Engine Cooling:Engine

Consequence of Defect

the positive crankcase ventilation valve may provide inadequate air flow under low engine load conditions.

Corrective Action

this condition can allow water/oil mixture to build upin the hose from the oil separator to the air inlet duct. after the engine isstopped, this water/oil mixture can, under cold weather conditions, freeze andcompletely block the oil separator air duct hose. this blockage will result inincreased pressure within the crankcase. this can cause oil leaks. if asufficient quantity of oil came in contact with the hot exhaust system an enginecompartment fire could result without prior warning.

Recall Notes

the pcv valve will be replaced with a new valve.

1988 Isuzu I Mark

Component

Fuel System, Gasoline:Storage:Tank Assembly

Consequence of Defect

perforation of the fuel tank or attached fuel feed pipe due to corrosion of the tank or fuel feed pipe materials.

Corrective Action

this condition could allow fuel to leak from the fueltank and ultimately result in a fire without prior warning. such a fire couldspread to the passenger compartment.

Recall Notes

replace gas tank with new corrosion resistant tank.

1986 Isuzu I Mark

Component

Fuel System, Gasoline:Delivery:Fuel Pump

Consequence of Defect

vehicle may experience perforation of the fuel pump diaphragm. excessive alcohol content in the fuel promotes degradation of the diaphragm coating resulting in radial cracking of the diaphragm.

Corrective Action

a perforated diaphragm can allow fuel to leak from thefuel pump into the underhood area. this could ultimately result in anunderhood fire without prior warning. such a fire could spread to thepassenger compartment.

Recall Notes

a fuel ventalation hose kit will be installed to prevent fuel from escaping into the engine compartment if the fuel pump diaphragm leaks and thereby reduce the possibility of an underhood fire.

1983 Isuzu I Mark

Component

Steering:Column

Consequence of Defect

the tilt steering wheel lock mechanism that holds the steering wheel in place may break. failure of the locking mechanism would allow the steering wheel to tilt, unrestrained. the wheel may travel to the high or low position.

Corrective Action

Recall Notes

the dealer will replace the steering tilt locking pin with a new pin at no charge.
