Risk and remedy
Risk
The corrosion may allow the bracket to detach from the frame, impacting vehicle handling and increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy
Isuzu will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the rear suspension lower link bracket area. For vehicles in which little or no corrosion is found, the area will be treated with an anti-corrosive compound. For vehicles in which corrosion has damaged the rear suspension lower link bracket and affected its connection to the vehicle frame, a reinforcement bracket will be installed. In the event the corrosion is so severe that the reinforcement bracket remedy would not be sufficient, Isuzu will offer to repurchase the vehicle for an amount based on the Kelley Blue Book "Private Party" price. All inspections and remedies will be provided free of charge for vehicles that are 10 years old or less. For vehicles older than 10 years, Isuzu will offer a free remedy, but only if the vehicle is presented to an Isuzu service facility dealer within 12 months of when owner notifications were issued, after that time owners will be charged for the repairs. The recall is expected to begin in mid-December 2013. Isuzu owners may contact Isuzu at 1-800-255-6727.

Own a 2003 isuzu rodeo. Car looks in great shape on the outside but the other day, the stabilizer came off while driving. Barely avoided a major accident. Mechanic said he never saw anything that bad before, severe rust on the frame. Can't be fixed. this seems to be a large scale problem and unfortunately, I didn't find out until after it happened, when I was curious if it was a vehicle problem. The car almost flipped when the part came off but came to stop in a ditch. Could have been very bad. Others may not be as lucky. *Tr
