| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I own a 2000 vehicross by isuzu. i bought it used a few months ago and have 65,000 miles on it. i also owned another 2000 vx that was totaled in an accident. my first one, and this new one has ha the power window mechanism on the driver's side fail, and the passanger side is failing due to a track alignment issue. upon coming in contact with an organization of several hundred vehicross enthusiasts i discovered that this type of window failure is epidemic with this model car. some of the owners have had multiple failures -- i.e., the windows have been fixed only to fail again, sometimes three or four times. i understand isuzu denies there is a problem. on the other hand i understand there are official documents by isuzu that do recognize this problem. since there was a limited distribution of this particular model car -- somewhere in the area of 4000 plus over a four year period -- it appears the window failure rate is a high percentage of that total number. i would ask that the department investigate this problem, including investigation of the internal isuzu document mentioned above. if there is, as it appears, a design flaw in the window mechanism, then there are hundreds of vehicross owners who have improperly been charged to repair it, sometimes multiple times. *ak |
