The 2015 Isuzu Reach has 3 recalls, with the most serious covering a driveshaft joint that can fail and cause the front driveshaft to detach, cutting drive power and raising the risk of a crash. This recall only affects vehicles modified with an XL electric hybrid system.
The other two recalls involve rear axle and suspension fasteners. On the axle side, rear wheel bearing hub bolts may not have been tightened properly during assembly, allowing the wheel assembly to shift outward and reducing braking performance and steering control. The suspension recall involves U-bolt nuts securing the rear axle that can loosen and let the axle shift out of alignment, which can cause the rear propeller shaft to separate, cut power to the rear wheels, and stall the vehicle.
