Common VX problems you'd like Isuzu to resolve.

Sorry I missed the link post. I'm there now!!!

24 & 25 (my household has two VXs).

It will help if a new petition thread is created (instead of using this one. I did not notice the petition until a scroll further down) .

Cheers!

Since the petition has a link directing people to view this thread, at some point we may want to delete the counting thing...;Dr;

im the original owner of my 99 vx and i have almost 60k on it right now....other than my accident that cost 6 grand to fix the exterior...which i thought would bring some problems...i havent had any yet other than isuzu dealerships closing down. but i'll sign it anyways just in case...

Living in the desert

The only problems I have had were:
1. headlight gaskets falling off. Dealer replaced both headlights.
2. Driver window binding. I apply silicone spray every when it needs it. Seems OK.

Had both headlights replaced within 3 days of new purchase due to clearcoat crazing. Had 1 wheel replaced due to blistering chrome, now the replacement is worse than the original . Peeling at tire/ rim juncture. Other 3 wheels exhibiting pitting on inside and showing more severe signs of the pitting I mentioned prior to purchase. They told me at that time that they would STEEL WOOL? them. I'm going to attempt to get them all replaced prior to 12K miles and PROPERLY clear coat them for additional protection.

My brother, who works in the auto industry told me that the Japaneese save all the good parts and send 2nd rate parts here, similar to the hi-perf versions of their cars that we can't get.

Passenger window coming off track again.
I have found now that paint is coming off wipers also.

I signed petition!!! EVERYONE SIGN UP!

I never listed my problems, so here they are:

- Windows off track: Dealer said they fixed the problem (they all do, don't they?). Still binds with rubber sealer when going up, every now and then... and still pretty slow.

- Headlight gaskets: Both came off at the same time. Dealer said they would just glue them back on, so I did it myself.

Windows slowed, went off track and finally busted plastic tabs on window. Had to replace whole window and regulator (driver's side).

Headlight gaskets coming off. Replaced headlight assemblys.

Wiring harness rubbed behind left headlight causing wire to fray and ground, losing console and tail lights.

My 2001 Dragon woes:

1) headlight gaskets coming loose
2) wiper arms and door handles faded & peeled
3) the infamous wet floor mat
4) pressure (or I guess lack thereof) for windshield wiper fluid nozzles


windows and cd changer still OK but I only have 11,000 miles.
