The 2011 Isuzu NPR has 3 recalls, the most serious being a rear wheel bearing hub where loose bolts can allow the wheel assembly to shift outward, reducing braking performance and affecting vehicle control.
On the throttle side, gasoline-engine models have an accelerator pedal that can catch on the steel stopper bolt and stick at full throttle, making the truck difficult to slow or stop. The third recall involves the onboard fire extinguisher, which may not function properly if a fire breaks out.
