Problem Isuzu Technical Center of America, Inc. (Isuzu) is recalling certain 2018-2019 Chevrolet Low Cab Forward 6500XD and Isuzu FTR vehicles. The cab may not provide an adequate warning to lock the cab tilt-lock after servicing. If the cab tilt-lock is not engaged, the cab can tilt forward while driving. Risk If the cab tilts forward while driving, it can increase the risk of a crash or injury. Fix Isuzu will notify owners and dealers will install an extension to the locking lever to increase its visibility to the operator, free of charge. The recall began November 30, 2018. Owners may contact Isuzu customer service at 1-866-441-9638. Isuzu's number for this recall is V1803.

Two numbers, one recall

Every safety recall carries two identifiers. V1803 is the number Chevrolet assigned in its own system: it is what appears on the owner letter, on the dealer’s service screen and on the repair order. 18V758000 is the number NHTSA filed the same recall under when the manufacturer reported it, and it is the one every federal record, this site included, is keyed on.

The repair is free by federal law for vehicles up to fifteen years old. Whether one particular vehicle is included is settled by its VIN against the manufacturer’s build list, not by its model year.

Both lookups check a VIN against the manufacturer’s own list and say whether the repair is still outstanding on that vehicle.

Common questions

Source: NHTSA, 49 CFR Part 573

Is V1803 the same recall as 18V758000?

Yes. V1803 is Chevrolet’s own number for it; 18V758000 is NHTSA’s. One recall, two references.

Which vehicles does V1803 cover?

2018–2019 Chevrolet and Isuzu, 2,076 vehicles by the manufacturer’s count. A recall covers a build range, so the VIN decides whether one particular vehicle is in it.

Does the V1803 repair cost anything?

No. The manufacturer must remedy a safety defect at no charge for vehicles up to 15 years old from first sale.
