While driving down the highway my engine shut off, then turned on again , revving the engine up as though I was pressing the gas pedal harder. This happened again about five miles further down the road. Has continued to happen off and on at different intervals. When the instrument panel lights go off I can hit the steering column just below the key and the vehicle will restart and the panel lights come on again. *Tr

I was turning onto a street. The street was covered in oil or some type of slick element. I skidded and fell into a ditch. My airbag did not deploy. *Tr

My 2001 isuzu rodeo that I have had for 9 years has never really given me any problems until this year. This exact incident has occurred on three different occasions now. I will be driving, the speed does not matter, sometimes it is 30, 50, or 80 mph, and the car will just start losing power. First the dash and all my gauges will go out, then the motor will start to sound funny and start losing power. Then as I make it to the side (thankfully every time) it just stops running and everything shuts off. I try to...

My brakes do not function properly. In the past year, I have replaced the front brakes and on the next occasion, the rear brakes. The first time because of a near accident when pressing on the brake and it failing to slow down to a stop. Eventually stopping. The next time, it actually didn't stop until I hit the back of a minivan, then a sedan and suv crashed into the back of my car. When I got my brakes replaced after that, I almost hit a pedestrian less than a block from the repair shop. Then driving to...

I have a 2001 rodeo sport, v-6. There apparently is a failure of the fuel pump sending unit. The gas gauge does work properly, moving on it's own, even if the tank is full. The check engine light is on and continues to stay on as the fuel gauge fluctuates. Occasionally, the fuel gauge will show full, upon fill up and the check engine light will go off but as the fuel level drops, the engine light comes back on and the fuel gauge starts to flip out, moving from full to empty and back to full again, it can show...

Tl*the contact owns a 2001 isuzu rodeo. While driving at an unknown speed, the reduced power and check engine lights illuminated. The vehicle sputtered and decelerated.

The current mileage was 70,135 and failure mileage was 70,130.

At a little over 36,000 miles I started having problems with the gas gauge. It drops from full within 30 miles, once it hits a half tank it sporadically drops to empty, the gas light comes on along with the check engine light. It will go back up but then drop again. When I fill the tank at a reading of 1/4 tank I get an average of 8 gallons before the pump shuts off. Yet according to the book it is an 18 gallon tank. Now at 40,000 its getting worse. I registered a 1/2 tank at the pump shut off at 2 gallons. *Nm

Pushrod and crank damage to vehicle with only 62,566 miles. This vehicle has been properly maintained in accordance with origianl warranty guidelines. Due to the fact this vehicle was a previous daily rental , isuzu reduced original warrantly coverage from 10years/120,000 miles to 5years / 60,000 miles. It seems quite unusual that when purchasing the new motor for this vehicle, the dealer selling the motor said he's sold thousands of these - all were replacements for 98 and up rodeos with the same problem (rods and crank )

Dt: contact states vehicle loses power while driving. The service dealer did repairs 4 times, but in a short period of time the problem returned. *Ak

I have a 2001 isuzu rodeo that I purchased new on february 21, 2001. In may of 2003, it was running rough and I took it to the dealer who diagnosed and repaired a problem with the egr valve. At the beginning of february 2004, the car was running rough again. I took it back to the dealer who said the egr valve had broken and needed to be replaced. The service technician said it had something to do with the type of reformulated gas that we use here in wisconsin and with the placement of the egr valve. However,...

I bought the car a year ago brand new from manual olds/isuzu in north richland hills, texas. I have taken it in several times for the same complaint, each time telling me they could not find the problem. When the a/c is on, the compressor turns on and off and is very loud. When the compressor turns on there is a terrible rattling in my dashboard. I even had the general manager ride with me and he heard the noise and told me that was normal. I have owned 2 other brand new vehicles and when the a/c was on, #1...

2001 Isuzu rodeo sport stalls out intermittently and also rpms surge out of control. Dealer unable to duplicate or find cause and states that there is nothing that they can do. I was told that isuzu will not pay the warranty claim if they can't duplicate or if the computer does not show a problem. Has been in shop 4 times now for this problem which has happened since I bought the suv brand new. Is happening more often now and I no longer feel safe driving my child or myself in this vehicle. Have come very close...

Engine pingns while accelerating. This same problem was reported on 1-26-01. Response was that engine needed to adjust. Now the response has been that I need to use chevron fuel of which that is what I use for my truck. I can provide receipts of this if needed, but I need to report the problem since the service department at midway seem to think that is not a serious problem on the truck.M do gasoline sero. *Ak
