What happened

Isuzu Motors Limited is recalling certain 2011-2018 Isuzu commercial trucks and 2016-2018 Chevrolet Low Cab Forward trucks equipped with Walter Kidde Plastic-Handle Fire Extinguishers (models FC10 and FC110). The fire extinguishers may become clogged and fail to discharge properly, may require excessive force to activate, or may have a nozzle that detaches from the valve assembly, which could cause injury and render the extinguisher inoperable.

Owners of affected vehicles will be notified by Isuzu beginning in December 2017 and instructed to contact Kidde for a free replacement fire extinguisher. Affected consumers may contact Isuzu customer service at 1-866-441-9638, Walter Kidde customer service at 1-855-262-3540, or visit www.kidde.com and click on "Product Safety Recall" to order replacement fire extinguishers at no charge.
