Problem Isuzu Motors Limited (Isuzu) is recalling certain 2022 FTR vehicles equipped with Allison 2500RDS (FVR) transmissions. The transmission is missing the parking pawl. Risk There is no pawl to engage when the transmission shift lever is set to the park position, which could lead to the truck rolling away, increasing the risk of a crash. Fix Dealers will replace the 2500RDS (FVR) transmission with a 2550RDS (FTR) transmission, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed on August 12, 2022. Owners may contact Isuzu's customer service at 1-866-441-9638. Isuzu's number for this recall is V2203.

Two numbers, one recall

Every safety recall carries two identifiers. V2203 is the number Isuzu assigned in its own system: it is what appears on the owner letter, on the dealer’s service screen and on the repair order. 22V497000 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.

Which vehicles does V2203 cover?

2022 Isuzu FTR, 4 vehicles by the manufacturer’s count. A recall covers a build range, so the VIN decides whether one particular vehicle is in it.
