Isuzu Troopers recalled after fuel leaks found

WASHINGTON – Isuzu Motors Ltd. is recalling some 2000 and 2001 model year Troopers after the sport utility vehicle leaked fuel in crash tests by an insurance industry group.

The recall affects 18,460 vehicles – all 2000 Troopers with four-wheel drive and 2001 models with four-wheel drive that were produced before the problem was discovered.

“There have been no reports of any incidents in the field, but any fuel leak is of concern to us and should be addressed,” said Terry Maloney, vice president of corporate relations for Isuzu.
