Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Abs instrument warning light is lit and the abs system is not working. no pulsing during braking action and i believe that the vehicle is not stopping as quickly or with the same ability to control the vehicle that i had when the abs system was working. soft pedal has been encountered twice but not at any other time. there was a dot recall that i had the isuzu dealer correct on 5-5-2003. they corrected the problem under the abs recall, campaign number 021002000 dated 2002-jun-03 with 47228 miles on the odometer. the problem seems to have returned, but braking is sporadic and intermittent. the warning light will occasionally go out but comes back on while driving. i have had the brakes inspected, all four brakes replaced, and new brake fluid installed all within the last two weeks. nothing has changed with the vehicles braking behavior or the warning light being lit. i have contacted american isuzu motors inc. by phone on 6-27-06 and was told that they do not have any responsibility for the abs problem since they did address and correct the problem on this vehicle on 5-5-2003. i think that the abs problem is still an isuzu ongoing problem especially after reading about this problem from other owners in various internet chat rooms as well as my own experience while driving the vehicle. *jb
