1999 Isuzu Rodeo LE review from North America
"I am never going to purchase another Rodeo!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I had to replace the intake head gasket around 66,000 miles. I had to replace the fuel sensing unit, because the gas gauge stayed on empty. I have a small oil leek, and I see the ABS light come on when the brake fluid is low, due to worn pads. My intermittent wipers do not work.
General comments?
It handles better, now that I replaced shocks with heavy duty/stiffer model. However, now the since the vehicle is so light, the ride is hard. Seat comfort is okay.
