1992 Isuzu Rodeo LX review from North America

Oh where to begin.

When I purchased this vehicle, the slave cylinder was bad.

About 7 months after that I did the vavle AND head gaskets.

Exactly 1 year later the clutch went, and while it was being repaired it was discover the rear main seal was bad, replaced it.

The brakes have been done, including bearings, rotors.

Last year it was the you joints.

The seats are worn.

The console is cracked.

The paint on top is totally oxidized, just on the roof, but very fugly.

The back bumper is all rusted underneath.

The drivers side window has to be pulled up and down, it is manual.

When I bought it the window was very hard to crank up and down. I paid $180 at a dealership, they never returned the crank itself and I drive til this day pulling the window up and down with my hands.

I have replaced a bunch of the a/c components, still it's 80 degrees today and I have no a/c. I have had it recharged 5 times, and when it did run it seriously took away from the already crappy performance.

And finally it has been in my driveway for a week, new slave cylinder and poss. brakes. And my e/brake doesn't work, never did.

For the love of god don't buy one of these. I admit being a young female I was probably screwed by the used dealer I bought this from, but with the thousands of dollars in repairs I am not able to sell it. I keep repairing it thinking it will be pretty much a brand new car. But at this point I have no car to drive and no $ to fix.fatlucien@hotmail.com~me.
