2002 ISUZU AXIOM Complaints

I HAVE A 2002 ISUZU AXIOM. MY TRANSMISSION IS HAVING PROBLEMS FOR THE SECOND TIME. THE SERVO COVER HAS CAME OFF AND ALL THE FLUID IS LEAKING OUT. THERE ARE SEVERAL CASES OF PEOPLE REPORTING TRANSMISSIONS PROBLEMS AND FAILURES IN THIS VEHICLE. IT SEEMS THE ENTIRE TRANSMISSION SHOULD BE RECALLED. THESE ARE NOT CHEAP REPAIRS. THANK YOU. *TR

THE FRAME OF THE CAR HAS SIGNIFICANT RUST CORROSION. HOLES ARE DEVELOPING IN THE MAIN FRAME DIRECTLY UNDER SUSPENSION AND BODY MOUNTINGS. FRAME REPAIR IS LIKELY MORE THAN MARKET VALUE OF CAR.

I OWN A 2002 ISUZU AXIOM AS OF APRIL 2009 AND I AM HAVING ALL TYPE OF PROBLEMS SUCH AS:MY GAS METER IS NOT WORKING TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC HE FIXED THE GAS TANK AND IN ABOUT ONE MONTH IT STOP WORKING AGAIN, THE ABS LIGHT STAYS ON,THE IGNITION KEEP OVER TURNING AS YOU TURN ON THE VEHICLE,THE TRUCK LEAKS WHEN IT RAINS,THE BRAKES LOCKS AND MAKE ME SLIDE WHEN STOPPING. THE MECHANIC TRIED TO FIX ALL SAID PROBLEMS AND WITH IN A MONTHS TIME THE PROBLEM COMES BACK. *TR

I BROUGHT MY CAR TO THE [XXX], WHICH IS THE REPRESENTATIVE FOR ISUZU IN MY AREA TO HAVE PICTURES TAKEN, AS A RESULT OF MY FRAME BEING ROTTEN AND FALLING UNDER THE RECALL. ON FEBRUARY 10TH THE FIRST PICTURES WERE TAKEN, WE WERE ASKED TO BRING IT BACK TWO ADDITIONAL TIMES BECAUSE ISUZU SAID THE PICTURES WERE NOT OF QUALITY, BUT THE WILLY'S SERVICE PERSON SHOWED THEM TO US AND STATED HIMSELF THAT THEY COULDN'T UNDERSTAND WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS. AFTER OVER THREE WEEKS, WE'VE CALLED AND BEEN ABLE TO GET NO INFORMATION FROM OUR CASE WORKER, [XXX]. WE WERE TOLD THAT WE REMAINED IN OUR SPOT IN THE LINE OF RECALLS, SO CAN'T UNDERSTAND WHY AFTER 5 DAYS OF HAVING COMPREHENDIBLE PHOTOS, NO INFORMATION CAN BE GIVEN.

I PURCHASED A 2002 ISUZU AXIOM IN APRIL 2010, HAD IT CHECKED BY MY PERSONAL MECHANIC ON FEBRUARY 7TH TO BE TOLD THAT THE FRAME WAS ROTTED OUT. WE BROUGHT MY CAR TO CAPITAL LINCOLN MERCURY WHERE WE PURCHASED THE VEHICLE TO BE TOLD THERE WAS A RECALL ON IT. THEN WE BROUGHT IT TO HAVE PICTURES TAKEN AT [XXX] ON FEBRUARY 10TH, WHO WE WERE TOLD IS THE ISUZU REPRESENTATIVE IN OUR AREA. WE DIDN'T HEAR BACK FROM EITHER ISUZU OR WILLY'S SO THEN WE CONTACTED THEM AND WERE TOLD THAT THE PICTURES WERE BAD; THIS HAPPENED TWO OTHER TIMES AND WE'VE SPOKEN TO OUR CASE WORKER AT ISUZU ON FRIDAY TO BE TOLD THAT HE COULDN'T TELL US ANY INFORMATION ABOUT THE DECISION OR MY CAR WHATSOEVER. [XXX] IS OUR SERVICE DEPARTMENT MANAGER FROM [XXX] AND [XXX]WAS OUR CASE WORKER FROM ISUZU. WE ARE VERY FRUSTRATED WITH THE LACK OF HELP, AS WE HAVE HAD TO INITIATE EVERY SINGLE CONTACT WITH ISUZU AND THEIR REPRESENTATIVE. I AM ALSO STILL WITHOUT A VEHICLE, THAT I AM UNABLE TO DRIVE FOR SAFETY REASONS, WITH NO AID FROM ANYONE, IN RESPECT TO A LOANER VEHICLE OR ANY INFORMATION.

UPON THE PURCHASE, ALAM, THE OWNER AND OPERATOR OF A CARS 4-U URGED ME TO PURCHASE A PENN WARRANTY, BUT I COULD NOT, SO HE PURCHASED IT. A COUPLE OF DAYS LATER, I BEGAN EXPERIENCING STEERING PROBLEMS, SHIFTING GEARS, AIR CONDITIONING PROBLEMS, AUTOMATIC DOOR AND WINDOW PROBLEMS ETC. HE TOLD ME TO HAVE MY DAUGHTER BRING IT IN BUT, SHE REFUSED TO BECAUSE HE WAS ALWAYS HARASSING HER ASKING HER TO GO OUT TO LUNCH WITH HIM, SO I TOOK IT BACK TO HIM AND HE SAID, "THAT'S WHY I TOLD YOU TO PURCHASE A WARRANTY". TWO HOURS LATER, HE TOLD ME THAT THE MECHANICS CHECKED OUT THE VEHICLE AND THAT NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH IT. AS SOON AS I RETURNED HOME,I BEGAN EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEMS. SO, THE NEXT DAY, I TOOK IT TO TWO OTHER MECHANICS. THEY TOLD ME THAT THE VEHICLE WAS HAVING RACK AND PINION AND TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS. I THEN CONTACTED ALAM, THE DEALERSHIP AGAIN AND TOLD HIM THAT I HAD TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO TWO OTHER MECHANICS AND TOLD HIM WHAT THEY SAID. HIS RESPONSE WAS, "LET THE WARRANTY TAKE CARE OF IT".

ISUZU AXIOM 2002 2WD WITH 141000 MILES. WITH 115000 MILES IN 2007 ALL OF THE SUDDEN TRANSMISSION FAILED AND LEFT ME IN THE MIDDLE OF THE TORRENTIAL RAIN WITH MY WIFE AND INFANT. WE COULDN'T NAVIGATE CAR TO THE SAFETY AND WE WERE IN THE MIDDLE LANE WHEN THAT HAPPENED. IT WAS A VERY SCARY MOMENT. I HAD TO REPLACE TRANSMISSION. I HAD INSTALLED NEW TRANSMISSION AS I DIDN'T WANT TO EXPERIENCE ANYTHING SIMILAR. NOW IT FAILED AGAIN. THERE IS SOMETHING VERY SUSPICIOUS ABOUT THIS TRANSMISSION IN THESE VEHICLES. I THINK SOMEBODY NEEDS TO ADDRESS THESE ISSUES. *TR
