I DRIVE A 2001 ISUZU RODEO 4X4. IT HAS APPROXIMATELY 100,000 MILES ON IT. UPON TAKING THE RODEO IN FOR RECALL INSPECTION ON NHTSA 10V-436 (REAR SUSPENSION) THE SHOP NOTICED THAT MY FUEL TANK PROTECTOR WAS 90% RUSTED AND ROTTED AWAY. THE SHOP TOLD ME THIS SHIELD (OEM PART NUMBER 8-97226-445-4) ALSO SUPPORTS THE FUEL TANK FROM FALLING OFF THE VEHICLE (HENCE THIS SAFETY COMPLAINT). I TOLD THE SHOP TO ORDER A REPLACEMENT AND REPAIR IT AT THE SAME TIME THEY WERE DOING THE SUSPENSION RECALL WORK. WEEKS LATER THE SHOP TOLD ME THE FUEL TANK SHIELD IS NO LONGER MANUFACTURED AND IS NOT AVAILABLE ANYWHERE IN THEIR DEALER NETWORK WITHIN THE USA. I'M STILL TRYING TO FIND A REPLACEMENT AT A JUNK YARD. I DON'T APPEAR TO BE THE ONLY CONSUMER IN THIS SITUATION AS I FOUND ANOTHER COMPLAINT THAT DESCRIBES THE SAME SITUATION AT THIS WEB ADDRESS: HTTP://WWW.ARFC.ORG/COMPLAINTS/2001/ISUZU/RODEO/10339599.ASPX

A RECALL WAS PERFORMED TO MY DISSATISFACTION. IT WAS FOR CORROSION OF THE BRACKETS IN THE REAR SUSPENSION LOWER LINK OF THE CAR. IT WAS CONSIDERED A TIER 4. TIER 5 LEVEL MEANS THAT THE CAR HAS TO BE TOTALED OUT. THE CAR CAME BACK WITH MISSING BOLTS, SCREWS ETC. IT IS MAKING HORRIBLE CLUNKING NOISES WHEN YOU TURN THE WHEEL AND IT SHAKES WHEN YOU DRIVE. I THINK THE UNDERNEATH OF MY CAR IS SO RUSTED OUT THAT NOTHING COULD ATTACH TO IT. I THINK THAT ISUZU SHOULD HAVE ISSUED A RECALL TO REPLACE THE WHOLE FRAME OF THE CAR. I HAVE READ NUMEROUS BLOGS ON EDMUNDS.COM RELATING TO THIS SAME ISSUE. IT IS A VERY SERIOUS AND DANGEROUS MATTER. ISUZU SHOULD ISSUE ANOTHER RECALL OR TOTAL OUT THE VEHICLES BEFORE A FATALITY OCCURS.

I OWN A 2001 ISUZU RODEO, THERE WAS A RECALL ISSUED IN DEC OR JAN TIMEFRAME IN REGARDS TO CORROSION OF THE FRAME. I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO AN ISUZU RODEO DEALERSHIP LIKE IT STATED ON FEB 17. THE DEALER DID STATE THAT THEY WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO GET TO THE VEHICLE UNTIL THE FOLLOWING WEEK. ON FEB 24 THE DEALERSHIP DID CONTACT US AND STATED THE VEHICLE WAS UNREPAIRABLE AND THAT THEY HAD SUBMITTED PHOTOS AND DOCUMENTATION TO ISUZU. I SPOKE WITH ISUZU ON MARCH 8 ALMOST 2 WEEKS AFTER THEY RECEIVED THE INFORMATION FROM THE DEALER AND THEY SEEMED UNCONCERNED AND STATED THAT THE DEALER'S PICTURES WERE INCONCLUSIVE AND THAT THEY DIDN'T SEE WHY THEY COULD NOT PUT THE BRACKETS ON THE VEHICLE. I STATED THAT I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THE ISSUE WAS BEYOND REPAIR AND ISUZU STATED THEY NEEDED MORE PHOTOS. IT IS GOING ON THREE WEEKS WITHOUT A VEHICLE AND IT SEEMS ISUZU DOES NOT SEEM TO CARE ABOUT THE FACT THE THERE ARE INDIVIDUALS OUT THERE WITHOUT AND VEHICLE AND NOT TO MENTION THE FACT THAT THE VEHICLE IS COMPLETELY UNSAFE TO DRIVE. *TR
