2002 Isuzu Rodeo S review from North America
"Piece of junk, I would never, ever, ever buy one again"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
What things haven't gone wrong...
Neutral safety switch went out.
Gear shifter snapped.
Head gasket blew at 65,000 miles ($4000).
I've had three coolant leaks.
Transmission just went out, but I can't see what's wrong because the hood release cable decided to break as well!
I've had this car not even two years, and have already had to replace the brakes twice; they definitely prematurely wear.
General comments?
I haven't had money to keep up with regular maintenance, because I spend about $300/month fixing things. Piece of junk, would never, ever, ever buy one again.
