1992 ISUZU TROOPER Recalls — Canada & USA

The 1992 Isuzu Trooper has two recalls, both engine-related and both serious: one where oil can spill onto hot exhaust components and start an engine fire, and one where a deteriorating accelerator cable can keep the engine revving after you lift your foot off the gas. The fire risk affects vehicles with the 3.2-litre engine, where a camshaft end plug can work loose from the cylinder head and cause rapid oil loss. If that oil contacts the exhaust system, it can ignite under the hood. The accelerator issue stems from the cable cover breaking down over time, causing the rubber boot to stick to the inner cable and delay the throttle closing by several seconds after the pedal is released, leaving the vehicle accelerating longer than intended.
