Isuzu Rodeo Structure Body Safety Report | Apr 13, 2012
Reported on Apr 13, 2012
| HELLO, I BOUGHT MY ISUZU RODEO SUV IN FEB. OF 2000. I PAID $27,000 WITH A TRADE IN. I NOTICED THE FIRST YEAR THE CAR STARTED TO SHAKE GOING ON 50-55 MILES AN HOUR, SO TOOK IT BACK TO THE WHERE I BOUGHT IT, THEY FIXED IT BUT IT WAS STILL HAPPENING. SO, YEARS WENT BY A FEW OTHER PROBLEMS OCCURRED SPENT MONEY ON THE CAR TO HAVE IT FIXED BUT ONE THING I NOTICED THAT THE BOTTOM AND BODY OF THE CAR STARTED TO ROT, NOT HAPPY ABOUT THIS. HAVING PROBLEMS WITH STARTING THE CAR, IT STALLS, WHILE I AM DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY IT DECIDES TO STALL, MY DAUGHTER IN THE BACK SEAT. WE COULD OF GOTTEN KILLED BECAUSE OF THIS CAR, SO UNSAFE. THE CAR ONLY HAS 75,000 MILES ON IT ONLY 12 YRS OLD, I HAVE MAINTAINED THE CAR IN GOOD CONDITION, JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND, IT LOOKS HORRIBLE. SO, DRIVING A FEW WEEKS AGO, I HEARD THIS LOUD SNAP AND ALSO TO MENTION MY 17 MONTH OLD DAUGHTER WAS SITTING IN HER CAR SEAT IN THE BACK. I COULDN'T UNDERSTAND WHAT IT WAS, SO THAN I NOTICED THAT THE CAR WAS NOT DRIVING THE WAY IT WAS, MY HUSBAND LOOKED DOWN AND HE SAID THAT RIGHT SWAY BAR IS BROKEN. SO, TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC AND HE SAID YOU WILL NEED TO SPEND MONEY ON REPAIRING IT AND OTHER PARTS THAT ARE ROTTING. SO, THIS REALLY MAKES YOU THINK HOW SAFE MY DAUGHTER IS IN THE CAR. I HAVE NOT DRIVEN THIS CAR AT ALL EVER SINCE, I AM SO SCARED. SO, FINANCIAL I DON'T HAVE THE MONEY TO REPAIR ALL OF THE PARTS ON THIS CAR,I HAVE TO GO OUT AND FIND A CAR THAT IS DEPENDABLE AND THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY ESPECIALLY MY CHILD. SERIOUSLY PEOPLE THAT ARE INVENTING THESE CAR'S SHOULD THINK A LITTLE BIT MORE WISER ON HOW TO MAKE A CAR. THANK YOU!! *TR | |
