LUG NUTS SNAP OFF EVERYTIME TIRES ARE REMOVED FOR ROTATION. THIS IS NOT THE MECHANICS FAULT. IT IS A DEFECT AND ISUZU SHOULD BE PAYING FOR THE REPLACEMENTS. I'M GETTING SOAKED EVERYTIME I TAKE MY CAR IN FOR ROTATION OF MY TIRES, WHICH SHOULD BE FREE BECAUSE I PURCHASED THE TIRES AT THE ESTABLISHMENT. INSTEAD, I AM GETTING CHARGED $80-$100 EVERYTIME BECAUSE THE LUG NUTS BREAK OFF AND HAVE TO BE REPLACED! BASED ON WHAT I SEE ON THIS WEBSITE, THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM AND ISUZU SHOULD BE FOOTING THE BILL FOR THIS. DT

I AM EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED WITH ISUZU FOR BUILDING AND THEN SELLING THIS OBVIOUS LEMON AS A VEHICLE TO THE PUBLIC. HOW CAN PEOPLE FEEL CONFIDENT ABOUT SPENDING THAT MUCH MONEY ON A VEHICLE WHEN IT IS GOING TO FALL APART IN THAT SHORT OF TIME. I REALLY THINK THAT SO MUCH GOING WRONG IN ONE VEHICLE THAT THERE IS A MANUFACTURING PROBLEM AND THAT THE COMPANY NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT AND THE DEALER SHOULD HAVE NEVER PUT IT BACK OUT ON THE LOT TO BE SOLD AGAIN. YES IT WAS BOUGHT USED BUT EVERYONE OF THE CAR DEALERS WE TRIED TO TRADE IT OFF TO ALREADY NEW ABOUT THE PAST HISTORY OF THE CAR, SO WAS THE CONSUMER NOT INFORMED BECAUSE THEY JUST SELL CARS AND DON'T CARE ABOUT THE CONSUMER. *AK

THESE ROTORS RUST AND FLAKE HORRIBLY AND CAUSE FAILURE OF THE BRAKES. MY SERVICE PERSON TOLD ME UPON INSPECTION OF THE VEHICLE THAT IT WASNOT SAFE TO DRIVE. THESE ROTORS HAVE FAILED EVERY 2 YRS/ 20K MILES. I HAVE NEVER REPLACED ROTORS ON A VEHICLE, LET ALONE THAT OFTEN. THESE ROTORS NEED TO BE RECALLED THEY ARE DEFECTIVE. I HAVE BEEN TOLD BY MY SERVICE PERSON AT COCHRAN AND BY ANOTHER MECHANIC WHICH SEVICES MY OTHER DAR THAT RODEO ROTORS HAVE ALWAYS HAD TROUBLE. WHY ARENT THEY ON A RECALL LIST? THIS COSTS ME 6-800.00 DOLLARS AT EACH FAILURE!! I AM GRATEFUL IT DIDNT COST MY LIFE. THERE ARE NO SQUEELERS TO WARN / IN 10 MILES FROM WORK, MY BRAKES STATRED TO GRIND THEN GOT WORSE AND LOUDER AND THE PEDDLE GOT SOFTER AND THE VEHICLE BECAME DIFFICULT TO STOP EVEN DRIVING SLOW AND DOWNSHIFTING. DANGEROUS/ VEHICLE WAS JUST INSPECTED BY DEALER 3MNTHS/3K MILES EARLIER IN JULY/NO BRAKE TROUBLE THEN/FAILURE 3MNTHS/3K MILES LATER.*AK
