While driving to work, vehicle started swaying in the back like it was hydroplaning. Same thing happened on way home. Didn't drive it during the next two days, same thing happened the next time. On fourth day, I noticed a bracket had come apart from the rusted frame. Car was bought in 2018, and am still paying for it. Did not know about the recall.

My friend [xxx] and I were returning home from shopping in town. Hit a small pothole on spring street in vernon, ct about 5 pm. Took a left turn down a hill and heard scraping sound outside the car.I pulled over and stopped the vehicle, engaged the emergency brake and examined the wheels. The rear left tire was scraping against the mud guard. I was within.2 mi. From home and drove there slowly and carefully and parked the vehicle. On closer inspection we discovered that the shock/strut had separated from the frame, and that both parts were badly rusted. Since the left rear wheel is not safely connected to the frame, my steering was affected, especially when braking. Thank god this did not happen at high speed on the highway or involve injuries or an accident. My blind wife and I are both disabled on ssd and do not have the means to fix or replace this vehicle. Other than this incident, the vehicle is in great condition. Please help us get our safe transportation resolved. Thank you, [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

Had my oil changed & asked my mechanic to check the frame as it had a previous recall on it. Following is description from mechanics invoice: "frame is weak on left side from recall repair to rear bumper. On right side in the wheel well area both sides look ok where rear axle hooks to frame:" The body is in good condition with very little rust. In the event of a rear end collision it could be very serious as numerous places in frame you can poke your finger through. Back to my complaint:this is very disappointing to me as I really like my Rodeo & have had no other real issues with it. I drive my grandchildren to school everyday & haul them around on numerous occasions & this makes me very nervous that the vehicle could be unsafe! clearly there is a defect in the frame because it makes no sense that the body is in such good shape & the frame is falling apart.

Was trying to get car through inspection but couldn't get the check engine light and fuel light off. I explained to my mechanic and he said you need a new fuel pump. I made an appointment and when he put the car on the lift he said the frame is totally rusted out and the car should not be on the road. I then called Isuzu and they told me there was a recall on it. They gave me the name of a dealer near me they said the car can not be fixed. They said if the car is hit from behind it would just fold or the suspension will just give out and you will not be able to control the car. Its been two weeks and I'm getting the run around from the dealer and Isuzu. I am now out of a car. If the gas gauge didn't break I would not have even known about this and could have killed someone on the road. Isuzu should be standing behind these cars!!!!

Frame is extremely corroded behind the rear axle. So extensive that I do not want to drive it. I had it towed to Isuzu repair shop over a year ago under the recall. They sprayed the control arms in front of the rear axle with a rust inhibitor. At that time I asked about the rear of the frame as it had many holes in it. I was told it was not covered. I took the spare tire off to change a tire the other day and looking up I noticed that the frame is literally missing in the rear on both sides. I do not know what is holding the rear of the vehicle on.
