| It was raining outside and i got in my suv to drive down the driveway to pick up my granddaughter as she got off the bus. as i started the suv and put it into reverse to back out of my space i noticed that the driver window started to roll down, the window got about halfway down i pressed the switch to raise the window and it started going up and then stopped at about 3/4 of the way up, at this point i had stopped the suv and i let off of the switch and the window went all the way down and i noticed smoke coming up from the window seals. i proceeded down the driveway to the end and the smoke was getting thicker and blacker. i shut the suv off and it stopped smoking and the residual smoke continued to pour up through the window seals. i turned the ignition back on and the smoke was instant and just as heavy as before. i shut off the ignition and saw the wiring harness in the door hinge area and was able to unplug the harness. the window is still down and i am not able to afford to fix the problem at this time. *tr | |||

| First after numerous attempts of putting unit on diagnostic system. it was determined - will first the computer could not read my codes; then my mechanic determined it was from the fuel sensor. check engine light is on. replaced fuel pump for 450.00 and check engine light still on and fuel gauge is inoperable. i can not pass inspection due to my engine light is on. car drive good however having theses issues; next mechanic tries to locate 06 car book. locally here they are not sold and it's quite difficult to locate 06 isuze ascender car book. then with dealership guidance they determined its electrical. my computer is misfiring incorrect data to systems. dealership nor mechanic can find parts because parts are very hard to find as this unit is no longer made. it is now april 2012 and i am still without car and still mechanic is still unable to locate sufficient parts to fixed the issues. this is exausting. the car will not pass inspection. this is just a nightmare... | |||
