I BOUGHT A 1999 ISUZU TROOPER LIMITED EDITION 1 YEAR AGO THIS MONTH. SINCE BUYING IT I HAVE HAD THE STARTER REPLACED, THE ALTERNATOR REPLACED TWICE, THE SMALL BLOCK WAS BAD BECAUSE OF A FAILURE WITH THE DIPSTICK TO READ THE CORRECT AMOUNT OF OIL. MY SON WAS INVOLVED IN A MVA DUE TO THE FACT THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT STOP AS THE ENGINE DECIDED TO RACE WHILE HE WAS COMING TO A SLOW STOP. THANK GOD NO ONE WAS INJURED IN THE ACCIDENT. THE CAR REVS UP AT AN IDLE AT A STOP OR SLOWING DOWN POSITION, AND NOW THE VEHICLE IS IN THE GARAGE BECAUSE THE TRANSMISSION IS BAD AND THE ALTERNATOR WENT AGAIN. THE FRONT WINDSHIELD IS NOT PROPERLY SEALED AND THE WINDOW FOGS UP IF YOU DON'T RUN THE DEFROSTER. THE DRAFT THAT COMES FROM THE FLOOR ON THE DRIVERS SIDE IS UNACCEPTABLE. I BOUGHT THIS CAR WITH LESS THAN 30,000 MILES ON IT AND IT NOW HAS LESS THAN 50,000. I REALLY DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY A VEHICLE WITH THIS LOW MILEAGE HAS SO MANY PROBLEMS AND IT IS IN THE SHOP MORE THAN IT IS OUT. I EXPECTED TO HAVE SOME PROBLEMS WITH A USED VEHICLE BUT NOT THIS MANY AND NOT THIS COSTLY! I HAVE BEEN READING ABOUT MANY SIMILAR PROBLEMS WITH THIS YEAR OF TROOPER AND I'M WONDERING WHAT IT'S GOING TO TAKE TO HAVE THE COMPANY STAND UP AND TAKE RESPONSIBILITY.*AK

THE FRONT WINDOWS ON OUR IZUSU TROOPER (1999) BOTH DRIVER & PASSENGER HAVE JUST FALLEN INTO THE DOOR. BOTH OF THEM IN TWO YEARS WHILE DRIVING DOWN STREET. NO ONE WAS INJURED, BUT THERE IS OBVIOUSLY A DEFECT AS THE LITTLE TABS ATTACHED TO THE WINDOW INSIDE JUST BREAK AND THE WINDOW FALLS.
