THE VEHICLE MISSES OUT AND THEN DIES WHILE DRIVING. IT MAY MISS OUT DAYS BEFORE DIES OR THE SAME DAY OR NOT AT ALL. SPEED, WEATHER, AND HOW LONG IT HAS BEEN RUNNING HAVE NOT BEEN AN ISSUE. IT HAS EVEN DIED WHEN I HAD BEEN DIRVING FOR 2 HOURS AND WAS GOING 70 ON THE HIGHWAY. IT HAS BEEN IN 5 TIMES AND THEY SAY THEY CAN'T FIND ANY THING WRONGE BUT IT KEEPS DOING IT. THE DRIVER SEAT SLIPS FORWARD EVEN THOUGH THE TRACK HAS BEEN REPLACED TWICE. BEFORE THE TRACK WAS REPLACED THE LAST TIME THE SEAT WAS FIXED YOU COULD JUST SET IN IT AND LEAN FORWARD AND IT WOULD TILT AND SLID. IT HAS BEEN IN 4 TIMES FOR THIS AMONG OTHER THINGS.*AK

THE VEHICLE HAS STALLED WHILE IN MOTION ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. THERE HAS BEEN NO WARNING PRIOR TO ANY OF THESE FAILURES. IN EACH CASE, THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO BE RESTARTED IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE FAILURE. THIS HAS BEEN OCCURING INTERMITTENTLY FOR ABOUT 6 MONTHS AND THE SERVICING DEALER (HALL ISUZU IN NEWPORT NEWS, VA) HAS BEEN UNABLE TO DETERMINE A CAUSE. ALTHOUGH THE SERVICING DEALER DOESN'T APPEAR CONCERNED, I FEEL VERY STRONGLY THAT THIS VEHICLE IS UNSAFE AND THAT EVENTUALLY THIS DEFECT WILL CAUSE THE VEHICLE TO BE INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT. WHILE I AM NOT A MECHANIC, THE SUDDEN NATURE OF THE FAILURES SEEM TO INDICATE A PROBLEM WITH THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM.*AK

THE CAR HAS RUN HOT THREE DIFFERENT TIMES, AND HAS THE ENGINE HAS RUN MANY MILES WITH A MIXTURE OF OIL AND WATER IN THE ENGINES INTERNAL COMPONENTS. I AM VERY CONCERNED ABOUT AN ENGINE FAILURE AT HIGHWAY DRIVING SPEEDS, AND ALSO ABOUT FUTURE ENGINE LIFE. THE MANUFACTURER HAS BEEN LITTLE HELP.
