What’s wrong with it?

In the event of a fire, if the fire extinguisher does not work correctly, there is an increased risk of injury.

Isuzu Technical Center of America, Inc.

(Isuzu) is recalling certain 2012-2016 NPR, NPR-HD, NPR-XD, NQR, and NRR diesel trucks manufactured November 24, 2011, to July 24, 2015, and 2012-2015 NPR and NPR-HD gasoline-powered trucks manufactured October 5, 2011, to August 27, 2015.

The trucks may have been equipped with certain Kidde plastic valve disposable handheld fire extinguishers, model FC10, that may not properly discharge when the lever is pressed.

What the record doesn’t say

  • NHTSA’s recall file doesn’t say whether anyone was hurt. Owners’ complaints are counted on each vehicle’s page.
  • Whether one vehicle or seat has been fixed: only its maker, or NHTSA’s lookup with a VIN, can say.
  • How many have been returned or fixed isn’t in the notice.
