Recall 92V-093: 1984–1987 Isuzu Trooper
ISUZU MOTORS LIMITED recall for structure, reported to NHTSA on Jul 27, 1992, covering about 49,300 vehicles.
The problem
Trucks used in the salt-belt states can have accumulated corrosion in the hinges of the rear doors. If the vehicles also have misaligned door latches and strikers, it is possible to close the doors in a "false latch" condition.
The risk
In the "false latch" condition, the rear doors may givethe impression that the door is properly latched when it is not. This could leadto passengers and/or cargo falling from rear doors which can open without priorwarning.
The fix
Check the door latches and strikers for correct alignment and repair if necessary; also inspect rear door hinges for corrosion and replace if necessary.
Notes
System: rear door hinges.vehicle description: utility vehicle.
