The contact stated that she had a cooler in the back that was full of water, and she poured all of it behind and under the seat. The contact saw that the water evaporated. The contact then checked out outside of the vehicle to see if there was any heat source. The contact observed that flames had formed under the rear driver's side wheel well. The contact stated that a person who lived in the house near where she had stopped had observed what was happening and came out with a fire extinguisher and extinguished the fire. The fire department was not called. The contact had the vehicle towed to her residence. The vehicle was not diagnosed and was not repaired. The manufacturer was not informed of the failure. The contact had researched online and related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 05V466000 (Fuel System, Gasoline) due to the location of the fuel tank, which was located on the driver's side rear, by the rear wheel well.

WHILE TRAVELING FROM DALLAS TO BEAUMONT, MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON.  WE STOPPED AND THE OIL AND WATER WAS FINE BUT THE LIGHT CONTINUED TO BURN.   AFTER CHECKING THE OWNER'S MANUEL I LEARNED THAT THE LIGHT INDICATED THAT THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE EMMISSION CONTROL.   THE MILEAGE ON THIS VEHICLE WHEN I ENTERED THE DEARLERSHIP WAS 23,815 MILES AND THE CAR NOT ONLY HAS IZUSU'S WARRANTY BUT AN EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR 7 YEARS/100,000 MILES.       AFTER JK CHEVROLET/ISUZU SERVICE DEPARTMENT CHECKED OUT THE PROBLEM I WAS TOLD THAT THE EGR FUEL SYSTEM UNIT NEEDED SERVICE AND THAT THERE WAS CARBON DEPOSITS AND CORROSION BUILD UP WHICH RESTRICTED THE FLOW OF UNBURNED FUEL MIXTURE TO THE EXHAUST GAS RECIRCULATION VALE (EGR).   I MIGHT ALSO NOTE THAT PRIOR TO THIS I WAS GETTING 13 MILES PER GALLON ON THIS VEHICLE.....THE ADVERTISED AVERAGE IF 17 TO 23 MPG.    ISUZU REFUSED TO COVER THIS UNDER WARRANTY SINCE THEY STATED IT WAS A \"MAINTENANCE PROCEDURE\".
