What is wrong

On certain sport utility vehicles, the accelerator cable can stick so that the engine speed will not immediately decrease upon release of the accelerator pedal.

The risk

This can cause the accelerator throttle cable to delay RPM and vehicle speed reduction for several seconds after the accelerator pedal is released, which in turn, can lead to a crash.

The fix

Dealers will replace the throttle cable rubber boot. Owner notification began on may 24, 2004. Owners should contact isuzu at 1-[removed].

Notes from the manufacturer

Customers can also contact the national highway traffic safety administration's auto safety hotline at 1-888-dash-2-DOT (1-[removed]).
