“On 2-2-05 I was invloved in a crash that was caused by a malfunction within a vehicle that I was driving. It was a 1999 Isuzu rodeo. I had come to a stop, pulling into a parking space between two vehicles at a walgreens store in enid, oklahoma when suddenly the engine surged, the whole time I was fighting the acceleration with the brakes but they just made a noise similar to when you lock ABS breaks on ice. …”
NHTSA complaint #10110520, filed 2005-02“I have contacted the company 10 times to fix the recall problems with my auto but no one has even bothered to follow up or give the info I need. My auto is falling apart with defects and Isuzu seems to not care.”
NHTSA complaint #10067934, filed 2004-04“After confurring with many owners of a 1999 Isuzu rodeo it is my consensus that there is a manufacturer malfunction with the fuel sending unit. Fuel sending unit is not working properly and causes the gas guage to read empty. Contacting Isuzu has done consumers no good since Isuzu denies any problem. However it is my understanding from a particular Isuzu mechanic that he repairs 3-4 sending units per day. I do not feel it is a consumers responsibility to pay an enormous service cost to fix a problem that we believe the manufacturers know about and have chosen not to recall.”
NHTSA complaint #10075174, filed 2004-06“The gas gauge does not read the correct amount of fuel in the gas tank. I fill up and the gas light will come on after a few miles and will stay on or will start flashing. This is a problem that can be vary hazardous especially for a woman on the road thinking that she has a full tank of gas and the gas gauge is going insane. Something needs to be done about this problem. It seems as if there are several and mean several others with the same problem. A recall should be sent out!!!!”
