The defect
US Truck Body Co., Inc. (US Truck Body) is recalling certain 2025 Isuzu NPR HD vehicles equipped with Waltco MDV series liftgates. The deck pins may break, causing the liftgate platform to fall.
The risk
A liftgate that falls unexpectedly increases the risk of injury.
The remedy
US Truck Body will work with the supplier, Hiab, to inspect the platform bushings and hydraulic systems and replace the deck pins, free of charge. All affected vehicles are expected to be repair by August 27, 2026. Owners may contact US Truck Body customer service at 1-800-443-0843.
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.
