Every road vehicle recall DVSA lists for the Isuzu Trooper since 1992: what the problem is, how it is put right, how many vehicles it covers and when they were built. Newest first.
Not every Isuzu Trooper is affected. Each recall covers cars built on particular dates or with
particular VINs, which DVSA’s file does not list in full. To check a specific car, use
GOV.UK’s vehicle recall check with its registration, or ask
the manufacturer or a dealer, who can check the VIN.
23% of the Isuzu Troopers on the DVLA record are vans, and DVSA’s recalls cover every
body type, so some of these recalls may apply only to vans.
Isuzu Trooper recalls by year
Recalls launched each year, 2005 to 2026
2005 had the most, with 1. A count of recalls is not a measure of safety: one recall can cover a handful of cars or tens of thousands.
It is possible that the internal contact resistance of the crimped joints for the grounding between the throttle position sensor (TPS) and engine control module may increase due to engine vibration. This can lead to an increased TPS voltage output which could lead to an increase in engine revolutions whilst at idle without any throttle input.
Remedy
Recall all affected vehicles for the installation of a new wiring harness.
Vehicles affected
12,382 Trooper vehicles
Built
1 Jan 1993 to 31 Dec 2003

Dilution of engine oil leading to engine damage
Launched 3 March 2006DVSA recall R/2005/179
Defect
Due to excessive clearance within the fuel injectors fuel may leak into the cylinder bores and then into the sump causing engine oil dilution. If this situation is ignored engine damage can occur additionally the engine revs may show an unintentional increase.
Remedy
Affected vehicles will have the fuel injectors replaced.
Vehicles affected
14,215 Trooper vehicles
Built
1 Jan 1998 to 31 Dec 2003
2005 1 recall
Heater terminal may burn out
Launched 30 June 2005DVSA recall R/2004/195
Defect
If the ceramic heater is used on full for an extended period of time the heater terminal may burn out. Although there have been no fires to date there is a very slight possibility that combustion could occur.
Remedy
Recall the likely to affected vehicles and fit new terminals.
Road vehicle recalls (DVSA numbers starting R/) whose model names match the Isuzu Trooper. DVSA records some recalls under a range or chassis name we cannot match, so this list may be incomplete.
Vehicles affected is the number the manufacturer reported to DVSA. When one recall covers several models, DVSA often gives only the total.
Build dates are the periods the manufacturer gave. Some recalls have none. VINs are not shown.
Concerns written in capitals have been put in sentence case, and apostrophes lost in DVSA’s file have been put back. The text is otherwise DVSA’s.
