While slowly driving on our home street I went over a small bump in the road and heard a loud noise from under the vehicle. Our mechanic advised us the rear driver side of the frame had snapped. The rear shock on that side pulled off the frame due to the excessive rust. The other side shows signs of excessive rust also. The car is now not passable for vehicle inspection and is unsafe to drive. The rest of the car looks great.

While driving I felt the rear of the vehicle swing from left to right, then seconds later there was no brake. I went to investigate and notice that the entire frame of the car was rotted out. The bracket that "house" the shock was rotted out, which caused the shock to break loose and sever the break line. The bracket that attached the axle to the frame was also rotted and is separating. I was able to pull over safely, no one was hurt. I need to know what process to take to ensure vehicle issues are corrected considering this year ,make and model was on the recall list, and that several news channel (team 5 investigates) as done report on this very problem.

I left a friends house and got on 295 when I heard a loud banging, then a short time later I lost my brakes. Come to find out that I was told the shock broke and because of that it broke my brake line and the support for the suspension was all rusted out. I was told by a friend of mine about a recall involving the suspension and what I had described was the problem. So I call isuzu and they told me that as of dec. 2012 that they were no longer fixing any more vehicles with this issue and that there is nothing more they can do. Well since I bought the vehicle used I never received and recall notice. I could have had a very bad accident, considering I had 2 people cut in front of me and I had to use the emergency brake to slow down. This is bs. I cant afford to have this fixed and im pretty sure that this vehicle has too much rust to be fixed. So now I don't have a vehicle and need one.
