| We bought a 2004 isuzu rodeo mid-october, 2004. within a week of having the car, the rear end was making a very loud humming noise when i took my foot off of the accelerator. it happened when decelerating at about 45-55 mph. we took the car into the isuzu dealership and the service department decided they would have to replace the entire rear end - on a week-old car! we tried to get them to give us a new vehicle, but they stood by the fact that all the paperwork that we signed for ownership was for that car and that car only. they would not replace the vehicle, so they replaced the rear end. the noise did not go away with the new rear end, and we have taken it in a few times since then and they have not been able to fix anything. once they told us that they didn't know what was causing the noise and that we should drive it for another few thousand miles and see if it goes away. it never did. we brought it in a third time a few months ago and they again replaced the rear end, but the noise did not stop and it actually sounds worse. it has been about a year and a half since we bought the car and nothing has changed. *nm | |||

| While driving the vehicle on the freeway if i would let off the gas it would almost come to a complete stop, something just didnt feel right. i decided to exit the freeway , and not more than a few seconds after there was a loud boobing noise and alot of smoke, i immeditley pulled to the right and the vehicle came to a jolting stop . at first i was unsure of what it was until i saw all the oil. i looked under my vehicle , and the drive line that was conected to the rear end was completely detached and laying on the ground. the tow truck driver said the rear end seemed to be locked. and that it was confirmed when he was unloading it from the tow truck the tires wouldn't turn. this was not something that should just come apart on a vehicle. it didn't have normal wear and tear. this has to be some sort of factory defect. *ak | |||

| On the night of the 22nd of march 2005, i went to the potamkin dealership to buy an izusu rodeo, they told me that the only vehicle they had was on that they were use it as a demonstration, that they will give me a good deal on it, the vehicle had a noise on it but they told me that was nothing that they will make the necessary adjustments. the next day i brought the vehicle back, and i told them that the noise was very bad and that i will bring the vehicle back, the vehicle had 2783 miles on it and the diagnosis was that they sold me a car with a bad transmition, i was 5 days without a car to go to work. the problem was generated when the dealer instead of exchange the car, they will fix it and put a new transmition, i haven't hear from them, and for what i observed the service is very poor, i think that they should it exchange the vehicle, without questions ask, they new that the car wasn't ready for sale, but they choose to set up a new salesman that he saw the oportunity to make business with me, also i called the credit union to try to stop the check, but for one night to the other morning the dealer cashed the check, they couldn't do anything to help me. i really need help from you to get my car back and in good condition, this people are crooks in what they did, i wouldn't sale a car that has mechanical failures.*ak | |||
