2001 Isuzu Rodeo LS review from North America
"It sucks!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
What has not gone wrong is the proper question!
Bad vibration in drive-train.
Bad front brake rotors.
Rear axle grease seal.
Transmission down shifts by its self when you let off the accelerator going down hill.
Transmission slips in reverse when cold.
Burning 1 quart of oil every 3,000 miles.
Drivers door seal fell off.
Heater control cable came off.
Intake gaskets bad.
Exaust gas recirculation valve bad.
General comments?
I love the Rodeo very much, but I have had so many problems with it.
The dealer I bought it from is the only Isuzu dealer around. They have a hard time diagnosing problems and usually cannot fix it right. They still do not know what is wrong with my transmission.
