problem #1

Nov 042005

Rodeo 4-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 9,632 miles
Contact stated water splashed underneath the vehicle and got into the fuel tank. The dealer said this problem was due to submerging the vehicle into water. They suggested installing splash guard. The service dealer dropped the fuel tank and cleaned the fuel system. The repair was not covered under the warranty. Updated 12/14/2005. The water got into the tank through the vapor/charcoal canister. The vehicle had never been submerged in water. The consumer explained that since she lives on a dirt road water accumulated in the bumps on the road which the splashes onto the undercarriage of the vehicle. The consumer purchased the SUV specifically for the rainy season and expected that the vehicle would perform as well as the 1997 Isuzu which she owned previously. The 1997 Rodeo never had this problem. The consumer requested reimbursement from the manufacturer.
