What's wrong?
The certification label on the 2016 Isuzu Npr Hd, Npr Xd, Nqr, and Nrr trucks is the information plate that tells an owner or body builder the correct rim size, tire pressure, and weight limits. It helps the truck get loaded, equipped, and maintained within the values Isuzu certified for that exact vehicle.
On affected trucks, the label was printed with typographical errors. Isuzu traced the problem to a communication error between the computer server that sent the label data and the printer that produced the label. In recall 16V105, the risk is that incorrect label information can lead an owner to load the truck or set tire pressure using the wrong values.
There is no warning sign before failure. The truck itself does not change how it drives because the problem is the printed certification information, so the error is found by checking the label against Isuzu's corrected recall information.

The year and model narrow the scope, but the VIN decides. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific truck is included.
What's the safety risk?
If the certification label is hard to reference or understand, an owner can load too much weight or set tire pressure too low. Overloading and underinflation increase tire stress and increase the risk of a crash. Use the corrected label information before loading the truck or setting tire pressure. Repair will be free at any franchised Isuzu dealer once available.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2016 Isuzu Npr Hd, Npr Xd, Nqr, or Nrr is included in this recall.
- Watch for Isuzu's corrected certification label notice before replacing the label.
- Call Isuzu customer service at 1-866-441-9638 and reference recall number 16V105 if the corrected label has not arrived.
- Install the corrected certification label when Isuzu provides it; the label fixes the rim size, tire pressure, and weight information used for loading and tire maintenance.
- Avoid loading the truck or setting tire pressure from the incorrect label until the corrected label is installed.
What happens at the repair
Once the dealer repair is available, Isuzu will provide a corrected certification label at no charge. The corrected label replaces the inaccurate rim size, tire pressure, and weight information on the affected 2016 NPR-HD, NPR-XD, NQR, and NRR trucks so the truck can be loaded and maintained using the right values. The recall repair is free. Isuzu's standard reimbursement plan covers documented, recall-related expenses paid before the owner notice. Keep any invoice or payment paperwork and contact Isuzu customer service at 1-866-441-9638 for the claim path.
