The Rodeo is a good family car or a car to get around in the winter. It comes in 4WD. The car handles well in tough conditions. It has lots of storage space or space to put the luggage for travelOct 11, 2013

From the start I had problems with this SUV. Bought it in 08 and it had a very low mileage and now I think it's because it was always broken down.
Common problem with the Rodeos is a constantly flashing fuel warning light. It's supposed to be a simple fix. Not for me. I ended up having to have a new fuel pump fitted too. This did not fix the problem. The bloody thing cut out at every stop sign and happily (not) when I was in the middle of a busy road trying to turn.
Serious fuel starvation, with many diagnoses but no conclusion, made it impossible to tow a horse trailer.
I spent a lot of money trying to repair the Rodeo and in the end, I traded it on for an older truck.

This is not my first Rodeo. :) This is my third Rodeo. They are not 'made' but rather assembled by several well-known auto manufacturers. Some parts from China, some from Japan, and some from USA. This is a great handling wintertime 4x4. Automatic transmission has both 'winter' and 'power' modes. Fun to drive. This particular Rodeo is a v6 and does burn some oil between changes. I just have to check the oil level regularly to protect my investment.Oct 27, 2012

fast in coners, slow above 98mph, handles nice, low but rides nice. Plenty of power when needed as long as you get coil packs. Its cheep to own and has plenty of pluses and fun as hell! feels like a go-cart!Mar 23, 2010

I liked it for the most part. It had plenty of power and great ground clearance to take off road. It wasn't bad for long trips but it is a truck. Driving it even on the highway however required both hands on the wheel as it always felt as if it was going to leave the road at any moment.Dec 30, 2008

strong fuel smell
Hi guys... hope you can help unstump the dummy. 2000 Isuzu Rodeo v6 engine automatic.. for several weeks we can smell a very strong gas odor when the car is running even in the car following behind it ! Used a Snap-on solus reader and the only code I get is a P0401 which is a egr code. I don't think the two are related but it's all I got... Car runs out fine...idles smooth with and without A/c on. searched high and low for fuel leak from front to rear and can find nothing... took it to a competent repair shop and same story... they can smell it but they can't find it. No Isuzu dealer within miles so here I sit smelling gas and stumped.. this is the wife's car and she's getting irritated.. any ideas ?? suggestions?? cwags ??? thanks in advance John
