Seat belts: front: buckle assembly
- What is wrong
- The front safety belt buckle release buttons can break. These red plastic release buttons are marked "press." if a button breaks, pieces can fall into the buckle assembly causing the buckle to operate improperly.
- Risk
- The safety belts would not provide adequate protection to an occupant in a vehicle crash.
- Remedy
- Owners should promptly check the condition and operation of both front safety belt buckles and carefully inspect the red release button for any breaks or cracks. They should ensure that both buckles are operating properly by inserting each latch plate into its buckle, tugging on the belt to make sure the latch is securely locked, and then pressing the release button. The latch plate should pop out of the buckle when the button is pressed. If either release button shows a sign of breaking or cracking or if either buckle fails to operate properly, owners should promptly contact their authorized dealer to schedule an appointment to have the buckle replaced or repaired, free of charge. The manufacturer is developing a remedy designed to prevent failure of the buttons that are not currently broken.

What 1990 Isuzu Pickup Truck owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
Left for work at 8:40, friday 9-15. Truck had been parked all night. I'd had not previous problems with vehicle. After I had backed out and moved vehicle forward, I heard a "whumping" noise over and over. I stopped the truck, got out and checked the tires. At first I thought someone had slashed a tire. I parked the vehicle and called my insurance company who in turn called a towing company to come out and change the damaged tire with a spare. The tow truck driver pointed out to me that this was belt that had seperated not a slashed tire and noticed that both the damaged tire and the other rear tire were both identical tires from firestone. I drove to an independent firestone station and was told this tire was not under the recall notice. I called another local firestone office and was told the same thing. But I've been told by co workers that this recall has been expanded to other tires than just the at, atx and wilderness series. I hope to find out if my tires are part of the defective tires sold and if they need to be replaced because of these defects. *ak( dot number: hyhh tire size: p225/75r15 )
