Isuzu Trooper Engine And Engine Cooling Engine Safety Report | Aug 12, 2004
Reported on Aug 12, 2004
| I HAVE A 99 TROOPER WITH 70K MILES ON IT. THE ENGINE STARTS TO BURN OIL AND NOW IT BURNS 5 QUARTS OF OIL WITHIN 3 MONTHS. NO WARNING LIGHT. I HEARD THE TICKING SOUND. WHEN I TOOK IT TO A GARAGE, I WAS TOLD THE ENGINE WAS BONE DRY. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME IT HAPPENS. LAST TIME IT RUNS OUT OF OIL IN 4 MONTHS. I DO OIL CHANGE ON A REGULAR 30K MILES BASIS AND I DO OTHER MAINTENANCE TOO. I FEEL I AM RISKING LOSING THE ENGINE ANY TIME IF I DON'T CHECK THE DIPSTICK EVERY WEEK. THIS IS AWFUL. ISUZU SHOULD RECALL THIS MODEL OR AT LEAST DO SOMETHING. IT IS SO UNFAIR FOR CAR OWNERS LIKE ME. | |
