Guys... we are all frustrated with the chronic issues our VXs keep having and we have very legitimate reasons for being so but, this petition /ain't gonna do sheeeet/ as far as its purpose is concerned.
They're not going to do anything unless there is a huge consumer safety risk that clearly shows their negligence, and can be proven so in the court of law; or there is imminent legal action (ABS unit comes to mind).
This petition is a good start, but to get this done right, we need someone who is either practicing consumer law, knows somebody who does, or knows enough to get it started and get somebody who does. It is not an easy path but as far as Isuzu is concerned - they already sold us the vehicle, Vx is no longer in production, it's not killing anybody or causing severe harm - I'm sorry to say this but I don't even see how after 6 years Isuzu would even consider having any liability and taking responsibility.
It sucks but I repeat, unless we get some legal muscle on our side, there is absolutely nothing they will do - and even then it may not be enough. "Please help us" doesn't get things done, "Please help us or we will proceed with the following legal actions..." does. Someone needs to organize this, document, conduct surveys and questionnaires, research liability and legal recourse options, etc... ABS unit may be a good start.
