1999 Isuzu Rodeo LX review from North America
"Budget minded sport utility"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The only problem I have had is with a rattle in the back window. It has been to the dealer a few times and the fault always seems to reappear. It is more annoying, than a problem.
The brakes are a little soft.
The cup holders are a poor design.
General comments?
So far this has been a reliable car. It has plenty of power. My previous car was a 5.0 Mustang and I am pleased with the Rodeo's performance.
The front seats are a little cramped and uncomfortable on long trips.
It is reasonable if you get one a year or two old.
