I am worried because of all the problems reported from the VX owners.
My VX only has 38,000 miles. Am not looking forward to these problems.
Try turning the threaded rubber bumpers on the radiator cross brace out a few turns on each side, and lubricate the hood latch mechanism with white lithium spray grease (NOT WD-40) for your hood release problem.

Your other issues (with possible exception of "driver seat problems"-elaborate?) are not that unusual for a 6-7 year old vehicle. The factory speakers were not that great to begin with. The original hood insert panel was not CF so if yours is, then somebody replaced it, in which case the cracks would not be Isuzu's fault.
