1992 Isuzu Rodeo LS review from North America

"Barrel roll"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Oil leak.

General comments?

I loved the car, it was great, rode great, I even went through a few cornfields with it. It had a mild oil leak which I had repaired at acceptable cost, but other than that I never had a problem with it.

I ran into a problem however one day on my way to work. I was headed down the road when a car came into my lane, I swerved one way, swerved the other, and then the car proceeded to flip 3 times. I was doing 45 miles per hour on dry pavement. So.. that was the end of my experience with the car. They've got two choices on how to fix the car, either fix it so it's not so darn top heavy so it doesn't flip during ordinary driving (it got a 2.9 out of 10 in safety) or at least make it a little lighter up top so that when it flips it lands on the tires. It cost me an extra $300 because they had to right the car off of the roof before they could tow the piece of junk away. Oh yeah, and there was oil all over the place.
