Why were the last two years of production(2003-2004) of these vehicles not recalled to be treated to slow rusting components in the undercarriage/frame on all Isuzu rodeos, Honda passports and Isuzu Axioms. Although a limited production, the final two years are still going to fail from salt/chemical contamination. I recently purchased a 2004. It was advertised as being from North Carolina. I later discovered the owner also lived and used the vehicle for most of it's road use in New York and massachsetts. It too has had a large dose of road chemicals. The recall currently calls for Isuzu to inspect and apply a rust preventive coating to slow/delay corrosion that will cause the frame to fail. Why not include all of these frames in the safety recall? the existing Isuzu dealer network is exiting the automotive market. If the last two production years fail in a year or two, there will not be a dealer network that will service an Isuzu product.
