Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I recently was involved in an accident that i could not avoid. 2 weeks prior to the accident i received a recall in the mail for my abs module and brake system. although my abs light was already on i assumed the recall was why. i took it in, they supposedly fixed it. i guess i was wrong. i drove up and told the gentleman that my abs light was still on, and i asked why he said that that wasn't part of the recall. my question is how can it not be part of the recall when it's part of the module. so i left it and decided to take it back when i can get the money to cover my co-pay. the i get in the accident, keep in mind that they just fixed my abs system and brakes. it had rained and i tried to stop to keep from hitting someone. it didn't work, i've had vehicles with abs before, so i know what they are suppose to do, and that didn't happen. i just slid and i mean slid into this guy. if the isuzu place where i took my vehicle to get fixed would have been fixed right the first time, i could have avoided this whole situation. but instead i got this whole story about hooking it up to a diagnostic machine &there could have been 30-40 different things wrong with it, and that would cost me $180.00. but instead i took it for granted that they fixed the recall defect. that's only my first complaint, i have had numerous problems with my gas in this vehicle. i took it in 2-4 times to get it fixed and all they do is a visual inspection, and tell me nothing is wrong. there is when i use 1/4 tank of gas going 12 miles.
