Extremely excessive oil consumption on Isuzu Rodeo 1999 model. Had the same problem with Isuzu Rodeo 2000 model. Fortunately I dont have to deal with the 2000 model any more as it has been totaled byt my insurance company due to improper repair after a collision in March of 2005. I did not know that the 1999 Isuzu Rodeo had the same problem until my son who drove the SUV brought it back to me two weeks ago, as he is in the military and is deploying to iraq. It seems that the vehicle spent more time at the dealership getting repaired than being on the road. My son asked me to get rid of it as he is tired dealing with all the problems this car had. Upon his arrival I noticed the car low on oil and I added two quarts. My son informed me that he had just changed oil prior leaving grand forks afb in nd and driving to norman, ok. After driving for 5 days I checked oil level and it was again two quarts low, after only driving 300 miles. I then decided to inquire on the web for similar incidents, and I could not believe the quantity of people with the same problem with their Isuzu. In addition, one of my co-workers Isuzu trooper engine was damaged due to the same problem in 2004. I found this site trough searching the internet for similar issues. In addition I called the dealership where I purchased my 2000 Isuzu and have been informed that Isuzu is aware of the issue but no buletin or recall has been issued, and that it is not considered a problem at this time. I keep my cars well maintained, and check my PCV and egr valves on a regular basis. I perform most of my car maintenance myself and use the best porducts on the market. With so many of us affected with the same condition on our Isuzu's is Isuzu/GM going to be held accountable for a bad product they know they have, or are we as consumers having to pay the bill for their inferior engines installed in these SUV's. avery dissatisfied and frustrated and never to be again Isuzu owner.

Lease is complete on July 9, 2003. On June 26, 2003 with only 43,947 miles, while slowing down to turn a corner, the head gasket blew. This in turn caused the radiator to fail, which caused the following needed repairs: Replacement of the head gasket, manifold gasket, radiator, valve grind gasket, PCM module and various small ticket items such as the oil filter and coolant. Had vehicle towed to local mechanic who called for warranty information and was told that only a 3 yr, 50,000 mile warranty was available. I then called Isuzu customer service and told about the 5 yr, 60,000 mile power train warranty. Contacted our local Isuzu dealer who states that only the head gasket is covered under the power train warranty and the remaining repairs would be subject to evaluation to determine whether the vehicle was neglected. Until June 26, 2003, the only maintenace required by this vehicle was routine oil changes and completion of recalls, which we were only notified about one of the three recalls. All three recalls were completed when the vehicle was taken in. We have been told by various mechanics, that all the damage to this engine is directly related to the failure of the head gasket. If the head gasket had not failed, none of these systems would have to be repaired. We have spoken with our Isuzu dealership who comfirmed that the head gasket failure is a common problem in the 1999 Isuzu Rodeo. If the warrenty covers the head gasket replacement, it should also cover the repair and/or replacement of all systems damaged by this failure. There should not be a question as to whether or not this will be covered under warraqnty. The vehicle is currently being towed from our local mechanic to a licensed Isuzu dealer for repairs, who will not be able to evaluate the vehicle until July 3, 2003 at the earliest.
