1996 Isuzu Rodeo review from North America
"Best SUV for the money!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Drivers window and passenger power windows failed at 70,000 miles. I repaired them both within a couple of hours for about $180.
A computer chip needed replacing at 60,000 miles.
Alternator replaced at 85,000 miles.
General comments?
This has been an extremely reliable vehicle.
I replaced the water pump when the I had the timing belt changed, but it was still fine.
I have had this truck for over 7 years and it has been in the shop 2 times. Nothing major. I even got 75,000 miles off of the factory tires!
