I HAVE A 1999 ISUZU RODEO. IN FEBRUARY 2011 THE FRAME BROKE WHILE I WAS DRIVING IT AND I LOST CONTROL AND ENDED UP FISHTAILING IN THE ROAD. LUCKILY NO ONE WAS AROUND FOR ME TO HIT. I TOLD IT TO THE ISUZU DEALER AND THEY "FIXED THE FRAME" BECAUSE OF THE RUST RECALL. TODAY I TRIED TO FILL UP WITH GAS AND ENDED UP WITH GAS COVERED FEET BECAUSE THE TANK AND BRACKETS HAVE RUSTED OFF. *TR
