MY 2007 ISUZU I 370 EXTENDED CAB PICKUP TRUCK HAS A SERIOUS ISSUE WITH NOT STARTING. IT HAS FAILED TO START AT LEAST 7 TIMES IN LESS THAN 4 DAYS. THE DEALERSHIP AND ISUZU MOTOR CORPORATION ARE CLUELESS AND TO WHAT IS GOING ON WITH IT. I WORK AS A TRUCK MECHANIC, HOOKED UP A DIAGNOSTIC COMPUTER TO IT. CODE IS B2960, SECURITY SYSTEM SENSOR VALID BUT INCORRECT. THIS CODE IS FOUND UNDER THE BODY CONTROL MODULE. I HAVE THE CORRECT KEYS. I TURN THE KEY TO ACCESSORY, WAIT TO CRANK THE ENGINE FOR 15 SECONDS, TRY TO START, AND OF COURSE , FAILS TO START. THE IGNITION SWITCH TELLS THE SECURITY SYSTEM TO NOT TO START THE TRUCK. PASSLOCK SECURITY SYSTEM LIGHT FLASHES FOR A MINIMUM OF 10 TO 12 MINUTES, AND HAS FAILED TO START FOR LONGER THAN 30 MINUTES. THIS IS THE SAME RECALL THAT GENERAL MOTORS IS CURRENTLY HAVING WITH SEVERAL OF THEIR MODELS. BUT MY TRUCK WAS BUILT THROUGH A COOP BETWEEN GENERAL MOTORS AND ISUZU. BUT NEITHER CORPORATION WILL NEVER RECOGNIZE EACH OTHERS EXSISTENCE WITH ANY SORT OF RECALL. I CAN NOT GO ON WITH THIS ISSUE. I HAVE TALKED TO THE LOCAL ISUZU DEALERSHIP AND ISUZU MOTOR CORPORATION. I'M SCARED THAT THIS VEHICLE WILL SOON STOP WORKING WHILE I AM DRIVING, AND CAUSE A MAJOR ACCIDENT. THE 3 ON-BOARD COMPUTERS RETAIN CODES. THEREFORE ISUZU AND THE ISUZU DEALERSHIPS CAN NOT LIE ABOUT NOT HAVING AND CODES.
