“I have a 99 Isuzu Rodeo ls which I purchased new from the dealer. Since day one it has been burning 1-2 quarts of oil evert 1000 miles. I contacted the dealer couple times and they said it is normal. Unacceptable. No vehicle should burn more oil than gas.”

NHTSA complaint #10066219, filed 2004-04, 1,000 miles

“While driving the engine started to shake, the whole vehicle violently started to shake, engine check light and brake light came on, and the vehicle cut off. 45 days later, I received my vehicle back from the dealer in operational condition. Since then it has cut off and died, or just didn't startup 5 more times, all of which resulted in tow service to the dealer.”

“The catalic converter, upstream value,erg value and a gasket was completely burn out by one of the other componets. My check engine light fail to appear. The only notice that I had was the jerking of the car and at this time I was not getting any pull from the engine. The fastest that I could go was only 30 MPH. I assume that I had gotten some bad gas. My car just died on me while trying to make it to the auto shop, and again the check engine light did not appear.”

“The center rear seat belt,which is where my toddler son's carseat is, broke into pieces during a routine move of the carseat. The seat belt latch was not subject to any undue force or pressure at the time of it's breaking. When I contacted the dealership I was told that the seatbelts are only warrantied for 3 years or 50,000 miles. My car is a 1999 but has 85,000 miles. I am very distressed to know that the not only are the seatbelts not covered under warrantly but that noone seems to find anything wrong with it.”

NHTSA complaint #10037358, filed 2003-09

“To start with, I have had continous problems with the brakes, which squeal loudly when coming to a stop, they moan & creek on the inside then forcefully pushes my foot off the pedal-- the headlights have been a real problem. I've had to replace these headlights 4 times now, 2 of which were done myself. I cannot go the speed limit on the freeways, barely even up to it, as the vehicle shakes & vibrates so violently, it feels like its being pulled apart in every direction, taking me with it. I can only get to about 46 MPH before the shaking & vibrations start in. …”
