I took the dealer isuzu to lemon law and I was told it works as designed. The jury was so stupid it was un believable, they all came up to my wife and I and said make sure you take the car to the dealers to get it fixed. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh isn't that why I am here in court? Good luck people are stupid and we are stuck driving an unsafe care because consumer reports will not get involved. Lemon cars for sale any isuzu cheap (related vehicle information: model year=2000, make=isuzu, model=rodeo).

I purchased an isuzu rodeo, 2000 ls 3.2l v6. The gas gauge has been showing empty since I purchased it. The check engine light comes on as well. I went through hundreds of complaints on the internet with the same problem. Isuzu should pay for it!

The gas gauge is faulty. I have heard of many complaints and that when there are hard shifts (turns) or press harder on the acceleration causes the gas gauge to work incorrectly and the gas light comes on. This is happening to my car currently. Furthermore, after the light comes on the check engine light comes on.

Filed Oct 4, 2005 · Fuel system · 50,000 miles · TX

Gauge reads incorrectly. Faulty fuel sending unit. Dealership refused to fix even though as I understand it, isuzu covers the replacement under drivetrain warranty. Car was still under warranty when complaint made to dealership.

Gas light comes on during turns and at other random times and gas gauge drops to empty when tank is full.

(1) normal fueling and driving (2) fuel level indicator fails to report accurately, fuel lamp fails and lights prematurely; check engine lamp fails and also lights and seems to be triggered by the inaccurate low fuel level events; owner is annoyed at prematurely filling gas tank and would like manufacturer/dealer to resolve these problems. Problem persists despite following dealer recommendations (3) dealership advised that 'check engine' lamp actually refers to the gas cap, dealer recommended tightening gas cap to resolve check engine lamp issue. Refilling gas tank and driving a few miles resolved premature fuel lamp issue, but only temporarily. These issues reoccur within driving 50 miles of a full tank. Check engine lamp issue persists. Premature low fuel lamp issue persists. Underestimated fuel level indicator issue persists.
