Isuzu Rodeo Structure Frame And Members Safety Report | Sept 25, 2008
Reported on Sept 25, 2008
| I OWN A 2001 ISUZU RODEO. I HAVE AN ONGOING PROBLEM WITH THE FRAME OF THE VEHICLE, IT IS ROTTING AWAY. THE FRAME CRACKED IN LATE 2008 AS I WAS DRIVING MY FAMILY, IT WAS A VERY HARROWING EXPERIENCE. I HAD TO HAVE IT REPAIRED. THAT HAS COMPROMISED THE STRENGTH OF THE FRAME. IT SINCE HAS NEEDED TO BE WELDED AN ADDITIONAL TIME, THE MOST RECENT, LAST MONTH. MY CAR REPAIRMAN HAS STATED THAT THIS FRAME WILL NEED TO BE WELDED ONCE AGAIN IN THE NEAR FUTURE AS THERE ARE SEVERAL OTHER WEAK AREAS. THE FRAME IS COMPLETELY ROTTING AWAY. THE CAR IS GARAGED ALL DAY AND HAS BEEN SINCE PURCHASE. IT IS VERY RARELY OUT IN THE ELEMENTS. I UNDERSTAND THAT THIS IS A WIDESPREAD SERIOUS PROBLEM WITH SPECIFIC MODEL YEARS OF THE ISUZU RODEO--THIS IS COMPLETELY UNSAFE. *TR | |
