1995 Isuzu Rodeo LS review from North America
"I love this car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Since I bought it over 3 years ago I replaced the timing belt.
Due to my own fault the Shrout fell on the fan and both were torn up last year.
Doors and locks needed some lubrication, which is no problem and is normal.
Belt are starting to crack, dried out.
General comments?
I bought it with 98000 miles on it. it now has 148000, I put 50,000 miles on it in 3 years. NOT ONE issue.
This is ONE great vehicle.
I live in the desert area close to water (1-2 hours from here) in mexico.
I have taken this thing through very soft sand loaded with 8 people, couldn't get it stuck once. Without my four-wheel drive engaged.
You want a good car? Isuzu Rodeo. But, if you don't care for it it will give you problems.
