Very dissatisfied with vehicle. It''s has many problems from start. While driving the vehicle and going into gears the vehicle surges forward. Car shimmy's with no available fix. Vehicle has strong suspension vibration and become more pronounced as speed increases. The ABS light illuminated and stayed on. The brake pedal never seems to go to the floor, it just gets sponging and you feel the ABS pulsating thru the pedal and the vehicle doesnt slow down, causing extended stopping distance. Fuel sending unit is operating erratically. Gas gauge reads empty nearly all the time regardless of level of fuel. After filling tank gauge will rise to 1/2 then as you drive a few miles it will drop and read empty. Passenger side air bag assembly mounts have come loose which causes air bag assembly to move around behind dash. This rattle is very bothersome. Paid a lot of money for the dealership to fix problem, but the rattle was back soon after. The bolts came loose on passenger's side front door. Wheel studs on 1998 isuzu rodeo strip off. Glove box in 1998 isuzu rodeo sticks and hard to open.

On 11/24 I was involved in an accident. I hit someone who lost control of their vehicle and pulled out in front of my car suddenly and without giving me much response time before I hit her car. My isuzu rodeo had extensive engine and body damage and my concern is that the air bags never deployed. I was going at a high rate of speed, being that I was on the highway traveling on the hov lane. Thankfully the injuries have only been soreness and nothing too serious since we were wearing our seatbelts.
