My "new" truck has a problem with idling very high (2000rpm in drive/2400-2700 in neutral) to where it is difficult to stop the vehicle. This has happened twice in the first 16mos. Of ownership. Took truck to O.C. Jeep/Isuzu in Mar., 2000 - they "reprogrammed PCM" (the computer). 10/26/00 took truck to mckenna Isuzu in hunt. Bch, ca for same problem - they "cleaned terminals & replaced" fried "cable to battery". 11/16/00 returned to mckenna w/same problem (high-idle) - they "reprogrammed PCM computer". the idling problem causes the car to lurch when brake is not held firmly, car does 35mph(+) w/out gas pedal engaged, causes down-shifting of auto-transm. To be very rough. Feels very dangerous to drive when acting up.
