The contact owns a 2001 Isuzu Rodeo. While driving 50 mph, the contact noticed fuel leaking and fumes escaping from the vehicle. She believed it was a safety hazard because she was inhaling the escaped fumes. The dealer stated that her VIN was excluded from recall # 00V298000 (fuel system, gasoline:delivery:hoses, lines/piping, and fittings). The current mileage is 112,121 and failure mileage was 111,983.

2001 Isuzu Rodeo, with no prior damage, was warming up and caught fire. Apparently, a fuel line leak in the engine compartment was the cause. No warning whatsoever, and no prior mechanical work performed in the engine compartment relating to fuel lines. Apparently Isuzu had a recall on fuel lines, but I'm told it doesn't apply to this vehicle.
