the latest,
i called isuzu of America customer service on monday, and told them the situation with not having catalitc converters available, and got a case number and a promise that the agent would be looking into the matter, and i would get a phone call if they found anything out.
so naturally, i figured i would just have to call back in a couple of days, or in a week.... welll,
tuesday morning, i got a call from i of A , and they left a message that they authorized the replacement of my cats with aftermarkt, so i could get back on the road. GREAT, although i usually like to go with orig. equip, i am at the point i will take exception.
today, i called the dealer, just for my week end update, and he told me that they have been looking since tuesday afternoon to find some aftermarket cats, again to get me on the road, AND GET THIS..... (if i understood him right) then, when the other factory cat comes in......wait....waaaait....they will schedule me to come in and have the aftermarkets replaced with the factory cats.......and still on isuzus bill, as of now.

so i am now putting the apb, (i think thats the code) for catalitic converters, both the driver, and passenger sides. aprihend at all costs, if not for me, do it for yourself, for when the time comes.

is there finally a factory part to dethrone the roof rack from the "impossible part to replace" throne

so in summary, although im am still without my vx, MY experiance, (so far) has been GOOD, with isuzu. and i have nothing but great things, (so far again) to say about bob rhorman isuzu, indianapolis, take care of your cats, and, tonight, before you go to sleep.......be sure to peek into the garage and check on your vx.......maybe go out, and give your it a hug. (make sure hood is cool) and appreciate how much pleasure that unique little suv brings you.
(ok dave....keep it together..... )


thanks people,

david
