What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

Crysteel Manufacturing Inc. (Crysteel) is recalling certain 2017 dump body vehicles built on Isuzu NRR-Series chassis. The driveshafts on these vehicles may detach from the rear universal joint.

The risk

If the driveshaft detaches from the rear universal joint, the vehicle will lose propulsion, increasing the risk of a crash.

The remedy

Crysteel will notify owners, and Isuzu dealers will install a repair kit, free of charge. The recall began on December 6, 2017. Owners may contact Crysteel customer service at 1-800-533-0494.

Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.

A safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.
