Isuzu Amigo Engine And Engine Cooling Engine Safety Report | Nov 01, 2004
Reported on Nov 01, 2004
| MY ISUZU AMIGO (1999 4WD) STOPPED DEAD IN TRAFFIC WHILE DRIVING WITH A LOT OF TRAFFIC. I WAS SCARED TO DEATH AND ALMOST HIT IN MULTIPLE DIRECTIONS. THE CAR WOULD NOT START, WOULD NOT MOVE, AND I HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED ON A FLATBED TRUCK. I WAS INCREDIBLY TRAUMATIZED BY THIS INCIDENT, AND VERY NEARLY KILLED BY THE SEMI-TRUCK DIRECTLY BEHIND ME. AFTER CONTACTING MULTIPLE PERSONS FROM ISUZU MOTORS, THEY ASSURED ME THAT THIS HAD HAPPENED IN MOST OF THE ENGINES THEY HAD PUT IN THIS VEHICLE. THEY ALSO TOLD ME THAT IF I WAS THE ORIGINAL OWNER, THEY WOULD FIX IT, REGARDLESS OF WARRENTY, BUT SINCE I WAS THE SECOND OWNER, THEY WOULD NOT HELP ME AT ALL. SINCE THIS WAS SUCH A COMMON PROBLEM, NOT TO MENTION SUCH A SAFETY ISSUE, I THOUGHT THEY WOULD HAVE BEEN A LITTLE MORE HELPFUL.*AK | |
