VEHICLE ORIGINALLY FAILED SUMMER OF 2000 WITH ~42000 MILES. WHILE DRIVING, ENGINE WOULD STALL FOR A FEW SECONDS AND RE-FIRE. VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER AND THEY STATED THAT UNTIL THE VEHICLE FAILED AND WOULD NOT START AGAIN, THEY COULD NOT DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM. AS TIME WENT ON, THE FAILURES BECAME MORE FREQUENT AND MORE SEVERE. THE VEHICLE WILL STALL AND WILL NOT START FOR 5-20 MINS. SOMETIMES THE VEHICLE WILL NOT START IN THE MORNING WHEN IT IS COLD. THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN REPORTED THE LAST 6 TIMES THE VECHICLE WAS TAKEN IN FOR OTHER SERVICE AND THE DEALER HAS BEEN UNABLE TO FIX THE PROBLEM. DURING HOT WEATHER, THE VEHICLE STALLS AT LEAST ONCE PER DAY. SAME SYMPTOMS AS 98V170000 RECALL. DEALER CLAIMS RECALL WAS PERFORMED OR VEHICLE WAS N/A. DEALER JUST KEPT THE VEHICLE FOR 11 DAYS, WAS ABLE TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM 1 TIME. CONTACTED ISUZU AND CLEANED ALL GROUND WIRE CONTACTS. THIS DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. I HAVE BEEN IN MANY DANGERSOUS SITUATIONS WITH THE VECHICLE STALLED ON HIGH-SPEED FREEWAYS WITH NO SHOULDER TO PULL ONTO, AND IN TRAFFIC WHERE I HAVE NEARLY BEEN REAR ENDED MULTIPLE TIMES.*AK

I HAVE HAD THIS VEHICLE SINCE AUGUST 1999. AT VARIOUS TIMES FOR NO RHYME OR REASON THE VEHICLE SURGES AND I HAVE HAD TO USE 2 FEET TO TRY AND STOP THIS VEHICLE. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALER WHERE I PURCHASED IT AS WELL AS OTHERS TO DIAGNOSE THIS PROBLEM. THEY EVEN CALLED ISUZU TO TRY AND DIAGNOSE IT AND THEY COULDNT DO IT BECAUSE EVEN THOUGH THEY SAID THEY FIXED IT IT WASNT. IT CONTINUES TO DO IT. ON JUNE 16 I WAS COMING TO A STOP AT A RED LIGHT, IT SURGED AND I HIT A PICK UP TRUCK IN THE REAR. HE HAD NO DAMAGE BUT I DID. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER ( MAROON ISUZU) AND THE NEW SERVICE MANAGER TOLD ME THAT HE WOULD HAVE TO START FROM SQUARE ONE AGAIN EVEN IF THOUGH I HAD ALL THE INVOICES OF SERVICES PERFORMED ON THIS VEHICLE. HE HAD IT FOR 3 DAYS AND TOLD ME HE COULDNT FIND THE PROBLEM. I ASKED HIM IF HIS WIFE OR DAUGHTER WAS IN THIS CAR WHAT WOULD HE DO? HE SAID I WOULD SELL THE CAR, AND GIVE THE PROBLEM TO SOMEONE ELSE. I YELLED AT HIM SAYING THAT ISNT SOLVING THE PROBLEM, AND I WOULDNT DO THAT TO A UNSUSPECTING SOLE, HE SAID WELL THE NEXT TIME IT HAPPENS BRING IT IN. THE NEXT DAY I TOOK IT TO ANOTHER DEALER ( CERAMI, IN PARAMUS, NJ). THEY TOLD ME THEY WOULDNT TOUCH THE VEHICLE UNTIL THE DAMAGE WAS TO THE FROMT BUMPER AND RADIATOR WAS FIXED. I HAVE SINCE CALLED ISUZU AND THEY TOLD ME THEY WOULD NOTE IT IN THEIR RECORDS. THATS IT? HE SAID YES. I NEED HELP DESPERATELY TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. I WAIT TO HEAR FROM YOU. THANK YOU DEBBIE LIGIERI. *AK
