1999 Isuzu Rodeo LS review from North America
"Great Truck - I will drive it til it dies!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I guess I have had all the usage ailments associated with the Rodeo. Nothing glaring stands out as all cars no matter the brand have their issues. I was a little surprised with the driver seat as it has given way on the right side. I plan to replace it soon. The rear seat belts have been a little odd as well. I replaced the retractors (strange this is not a recall item or warranty repair)
General comments?
The Rodeo has really been a good truck for me and my family. It hauls what I need and it performs well in traffic. It has not left me stranded and has actually been pretty affordable for a SUV. It was not my first choice in 1999 but I liked the styling so I went with it. Overall I have been pleased.
