Isuzu Rodeo Fuel System, Other Storage Fuel Gauge System Safety Report | Jan 27, 2003
Reported on Jan 27, 2003
| FUEL GAUGE IN 1998 ISUZU RODEO. THIS IS CLEARLY MALFUNCTIONING/DEFECTIVE AND, FROM REVIEWING A WIDE VARIETY OF INTERNET NEWSGROUPS PERVADES ALL ISUZU OWNERS FROM THIS MODEL YEAR. THE MANUFACTURE WANTS TO PLACE THE BLAME ON SULPHUR IN THE FUEL. IF THIS WAS THE CASE, WHY DOES THIS CONDITION NOT OCCUR IN MANY VEHICLE MODELS. I BELIEVE THIS WARRANTS A RECALL AND I'M SURPRISED A RECALL HAS NOT BEEN ISSUED. IF YOU HAVE ANY INFORMATION ABOUT A FORTHCOMING RECALL OR WHAT CAN BE DONE TO RESOLVE THIS CIRCUMSTANCE, IT WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. THE DEALER WILL ONLY ADDRESS THIS ISSUE IF THE VEHICLE IS UNDER WARRANTY. I'VE HAD THE VEHICLE SERVICED MULTIPLE TIMES BUT THE DEALER HAS NEVER TAKEN THE INITIATIVE TO REPAIR/REPLACE THE PART. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. *LA | |
