I have a 2002 isuzu axiom with 84,000 miles. The transmission is slipping. Apparently this is a defect that many, many owners are experiencing or have experienced. This defect needs to be recalled and fixed by the manufacturer not to mention other issues with the power windows, check engine lights, starter failing to start right away

While driving on uneven roads or snow and braking the car produces a grinding noise from the front of the car and the brakes do not fully work if at all. The car takes much longer to stop and in this situation if they are even working at all and may cause a car accident in the future from the car not being able to brake appropriately. I do not know how to correct this failure.

Extreme vibration while coming to a stop. Starts around 15-20 MPH and continues as long as the brakes are depressed. Normally I hear (feel) it and pump the brakes to try and make it stop. Problem has occurred since we purchased new in 2001 and continues to happen today. I have had it checked by the dealership and other mechanics. It does not appear to affect the actual braking but I don't think it is normal. I have replaced the brake pads in the front. Did not help. Local dealership no longer sells/services isuzu.

Brakes - while applying the brakes at high or low speeds there is a terrible vibration and grinding sound from the vehicle. It feels as if I am sliding on loose gravel and the vehicle does not stop properly. I have taken the vehicle to the dealership and they claim to be unable to duplicate the problem. I have asked about other complaints about this or if there has been a recall and the answer was no. I can say that I am not happy with the quality or performance of this isuzu product.

Vibration and slow lose of breaking power. My axiom has been in the dealer 3 times this year ti fix a bad vibration while breaking. Twice they claim they cannot replicate the problem but once they admitted the rotors are warped. The vehicle continues to have the same problem even after the dealer "fixed" it. With the vibration is a slow lose of braking power and a softening of the pedal. At times the brakes fade and it requires pushing the pedal to the floor to get the car to stop. I am conserned that the vibrations will eventually cause the total lose of braking power.
