| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I took the trooper to have rear axle seal replaced, and new brake shoes installed. several mechanics put trooper up on lift, and refused to replace brake shoes/rear seal. they said that the frame is so far gone that they will not fix the rear seal or brakes because trooper is totally unsafe due to the frame rot. to perform service to brake area would be a waste of time and expense since i have far greater problems with the trooper. they said that they can't in good conscience take my money for repairs....as once again, the problem with the frame is monumental. i cannot have this vehicle inspected, therefore i cannot drive it. after seeing it up on the frame, i am petrified to. another reputable mechanic ( at an isuzu dearlership here in maine) said that the steering box is rotting off the frame, and if driven, can not only cause an accident, but a fataliy. i can't even donate this vehicle for fear that someone may be seroiusly injured as a result of operating it. please advise me asap of any/all information you may have, and where i should go from here. isuzu dealerships have tried to sell me another isuzu. if isuzu can't stand behind what they have sold, i cannot see my way clear to purchase another one of their inferior products.in the meantime, the trooper sits in my driveway. unable to be driven/sold/donated. please advise me as soon as possible as to what couse of action can be taken to hold this car manufacturer responsible for their manufacturing shortcomings resulting in the production of highly unsafe transportation. from everything that i have been told, this vehicle was unsafe coming off of the assembly lines. thank you for your tiem and consideration in this matter. sincerely, lori bridges. |
