CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STAYS ON AND TRUCK CUTS OFF FREQUENTLY. I HAVE HAD THE PLUGS AND WIRES CHANGED, NUMEROUS OIL CHANGES, GAS TREATMENTS. I TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC SEVERAL TIMES. I EVEN WENT ON LINE TO CHECK INFORMATION AND WAS TOLD THAT THE FUEL TANK HAS GONE BAD AND THAT ONE COMING FROM THE MANUFACTURE WOULD COST $1500.00! I JUST BOUGHT THIS TRUCK IN MAY 2004. I HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO DRIVE THE TRUCK FOR ALMOST 2 WEEKS, AND I STILL OVER 2 1/2 YEARS ON IT. WHY AREN'T THERE RECALLS ON THIS FUEL TANK/GAS/EMISSIONS SYSTEM ???I DON'T HAVE $1500.00 DOLLARS , PLUS CONTINUE TO MAKE PAYMENTS ON IT TOO. *JB

THE FUEL GAUGE WILL DROP DOWN TO EMPTY AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS CONSTANTLY ON. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND PAID AND ESTIMATE FEE OF $80 ONLY TO HAVE THEM TELL ME TO BUY A NEW GAS CAP WHICH I DID AND THE SAME PROBLEM. I CAN SEE FROM THIS PAGE THAT OTHER'S EXPERIENCE THE SAME PROBLEM AND FEEL THAT THIS SHOULD BE REPAIR BY ISUZU AT NO COST TO ME. I HAD TO TAKE IT TO A SHOP WHICH REPLACED THE GAS TANK SENSOR FOR $400.00 WHICH I THINK ISUZU SHOULD REIMBURSE.*AK
