Owner Letter

DEAR ISUZU RODEO OR PICKUP OWNER:

This notice is sent to you in accordance with the requirements of the National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act. Isuzu Motors Limited has determined that a defect which relates to motor vehicle safety exists on certain 1994-95.5 Rodeo models equipped with manual transmission and the 2.6L or 3.2L engine, certain 1994-95.5 Rodeo models equipped with automatic transmission and the 3.2L engine, and certain 1994-95 Pickup models equipped with manual transmission and the 2.6L engine.

WHAT IS THE CONDITION?

The voltage regulator, which controls the amount of voltage in your vehicle's electrical system, may contain manufacturing errors in an integrated circuit. This may cause excessive electrical charging (overcharging) of your vehicle's alternator, which could result in engine control malfunction, and/or in the worst case, eventual engine stall.

WHAT WE WILL DO

To prevent this condition from occuring, your Isuzu dealer will replace the voltage regulator in your vehicle's alternator with a new one. This service will be performed for you at no charge.

WHAT YOU SHOULD DO

Please contact your Isuzu dealer as soon as possible to arrange a service date. Instructions for making this correction have been sent to your Isuzu dealer.
