When we took the vehicle in for service we were told there is significant rust damage to the frame. It could not be fixed and as a result was not worth putting much money into the car. Today when we took it to a different garage we were told there is a recall on the frame. I am unable to find evidence of a recall for this model year.

I took my 95' isuzu rodeo to my local mechanic for new shocks and struts. A few minutes later the mechanic came in the waiting room and said he could not work on the vehicle due to the excessive frame rust and that the car is not safe to drive. He went on to say isuzu is known for rust and has not made efforts to recall their defective frames. I am now unable to perform the normal routine maintenance needed to prolong the life of my vehicle and investment. This is also a huge safety risk that isuzu should address.
