Isuzu Rodeo Service Brakes, Hydraulic Antilock Safety Report | Oct 09, 2001
Reported on Oct 09, 2001
| MY SON WAS DRIVING MY 1999 ISUZU RODEO HOME FROM SCHOOL. HE WAS AT A RED LIGHT, STOPPED TO TAKE A RIGHT TURN AND CAR ACCELERATED ON ITS OWN WENT OUT OF CONTROL. HE TRIED TO GET IT UNDER CONTROL BUT IT WOULDN'T STOP; IT JUST KEPT GOING, HE WENT ONTO THE OTHER LANE AND COLLIDED WITH ANOTHER DRIVER HEAD ON. FORTUNATELY, NOBODY WAS HURT. THIS IS THE 3RD TIME THE CAR HAS REVVED UP AND WENT ON ITS OWN. THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED TO ME I THOUGHT IT WAS BECAUSE IT WASN'T WARMED UP BUT IT HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES. I CALLED ISUZU AND THEY SAID THEY NEVER HEARD OF ANY COMPLAINT LIKE THIS ALTHOUGH I HAVE SPOKEN WITH OTHER PEOPLE WHO HAVE THESE CARS AND THEY SAID THE SAME THINK HAPPENED TO THEM. I HAVE REPORTED IT TO THE INSURANCE COMPANY. I ALSO CALLED ANOTHER ISUZU DEALER AND HE SAID HE HAS HEARD OF THIS HAPPENING, I THINK THIS REALLY NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED.*AK | |
