There was a few incidents. One day my two sisters where riding down the highway and out of no where my trunk window completely busted out. My sisters were terrified and luckily a cop pulled up. He told them that it look like someone had put tint over the heating wires that they use to defrost. Being that I had bought it from a dealership they led me to believe that my tint was manufactured. I feel that I was ripped off from the company because they over charged me as well. When I bought my 99' Isuzu Rodeo it was for 21,995 when they finish my paper work I thought nothing about what they added on to my bill. Years had went by and I decided to trade my vehicle in for a new model. Some friendly salesmen from a Isuzu dealership found out that I had been ripped off by the previous place that I purchased my vehicle from. I found out that they had charged me in all $34,00. On my receipt it said that I suppose to had, insurance and a whole lot of other things that I didn't even know about. I just felt so bad because I felt like they had took advantage of me because I was a woman. Other things that I had to go through with my vehicle was paying constantly for it to get fixed. My axles and a whole lot of stuff. I received a recall in the mail saying recalling all 99' Isuzu Rodeo's and I also heard it on the news. But as much as I tried to get in touch with someone I never was able too. I really like how Rodeos ride, how they look, I just like it all together. But what I had to go through these past 5 years have been terrifying.

The fuel gauge on our 1999 Isuzu Rodeo began flashing one day and then just quit working. The dealer told us that Isuzu was aware of this problem with the 99 model but would not issue a recall because it was expensive to repair. This has since caused the check engine light to come on. We have to use the trip odometer to try and estimate how much fuel we have in the tank. You would think it would be less expensive to lose customers over something they know is defective.

We have had our Isuzu Rodeo for 2 months. We, my finacee and 5 yr old, were driving the vehicle when apparently the gas line to the main engine broke off. We had gas shooting every where. We were told by the tech's that the line apparently snapped off. That we might have hit a bump. I have filed a complaint with the BBB and I am in dispute with the dealership. We were told, by the fire department, that we were fortunate the SUV did not explode. We wish to inform others of the possible defect that could save lives.
