2001 Isuzu Rodeo S review from North America
"Just bought and worried after reading here"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Both front Window Weatherstrippings 1 hour after buying the car.
Car feels extremely unsteady (quite scary) around highway bumps on turns. (I have owned a 1988 Isuzu Trooper and I thought that this would be better!!)
Gas Warning light comes on when I have 6 gallons in the tank as it is a 20 gallon tank and when the light is on, level on E, it only takes about 13.5 gallons?!
General comments?
Well I bought the car about a month ago and nothing has gone wrong yet except my 2 front windows not closing because the weatherstripping had dry rotted and pinched on my 2001 (common Isuzu). I owned an 88 Trooper and I have just as many problems with a 13 year newer car than with that hunk of junk (5 heads and gaskets in 95,000 miles). I am scared after reading all of these terrible comments, but will keep you posted!
