2001 Isuzu Rodeo Air Bags & Restraints Problems

AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON AND OFF . WENT FOR INSPECTION TWICE PAID $99 DOLLARS FOR THE PLACE TO FIX FOR INSPECTION AND LIGHT IS BACK ON AGAIN. HE SAID THE AIR BAG MAY NEED TO BE REPLACED

I WAS TURNING ONTO A STREET. THE STREET WAS COVERED IN OIL OR SOME TYPE OF SLICK ELEMENT. I SKIDDED AND FELL INTO A DITCH. MY AIRBAG DID NOT DEPLOY. *TR

A PROBLEM W/BRAKES DURING RAIN ONLY LOCKING UP LEADING TO ACCIDENTS. CAR WAS INVOLVED IN 2 ACCIDENTS AFTER FIRST ACCIDENT WAS ASSURED BRAKES WERE GOOD SECOND ACCIDENT WAS A ROLL OVER SAME PROBLEM BRAKES LOCKED CAUSING LOSS OF CONTROL LEADING TO ROLLOVER IN WHICH ATLEAST 2 IMPACTS BEFORE ROLLOVER AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. *TR

I HIT ANOTHER VEHICLE FROM BEHIND (THE FRONT RIGHT, DRIVER'S SIDE OF MY VEHICLE STRUCK THE RIGHT REAR OF THE OTHER VEHICLE) AT ABOUT 30 MILES PER HOUR. BECAUSE MY AIRBAG FAILED TO DEPLOY, I SUFFERED BILATERAL JAW FRACTURES AND LACERATIONS TO THE INSIDE AND OUTSIDE OF MY LOWER LIP AREA WHERE MY TEETH WENT THROUGH MY SKIN (10-12 SUTURES WERE NEEDED ON THE INSIDE AND OUTSIDE FOR THIS LACERATION) AND ANOTHER 15 SUTURES WERE NEEDED TO REPAIR A LACERATION RESULTING FROM THE INSIDE OF MY MOUTH RIPPING APART WHERE THE LOWER GUMS MEET THE SKIN OF MY CHIN. BECAUSE THE IMPACT OF THE ACCIDENT WAS ENOUGH TO TOTAL MY VEHICLE RIGHT AT THE DRIVER'S AREA WHERE I WAS SEATED, I BELIEVE THE AIRBAG WAS DEFECTIVE SINCE IT SHOULD HAVE DEPLOYED AND PROTECTED MY FACE FROM THESE INJURIES. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2001 ISUZU RODEO. WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL ACTIVATED, THE CONTACT WAS INVOLVED IN A HIGH IMPACT VEHICLE CRASH. THE MEDIAN ON THE HIGHWAY SUSTAINED PROPERTY DAMAGE. THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED. THE AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. THE DEALER HAS NOT BEEN NOTIFIED. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED MODERATE INJURIES TO HIS NECK AND SHOULDERS. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE 97,000. THE CONSUMER PROVIDED PICTURES OF THE VEHICLE. UPDATED 09/06/07 *TR

I HAD A BLOW OUT ON MY 2001 ISUZU RODEO, CAUSING MY VEHICLE TO GO OFF THE ROAD TO THE RIGHT RUNNING INTO ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE SEAT BELT CAME OFF, THE AIRBAGS DID NOT WORK. I SUSTAINED HEAD INJURIES CAUSING SEIZURES, A DISPLAYED SHOULDER, AND A FRACTURED JAW. DUE TO THE HEAD INJURIES I WAS UNCONSCIOUS AND UNABLE TO KEEP CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. *NM

DT: THERE WAS AN ACCIDENT AND NO AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. THE CAR WAS EQUIPPED WITH FRONT AIR BAGS. THERE WAS NO WARNING LIGHTS ON TO INDICATE A PROBLEM. LAST TIME THE CAR WAS CHECKED THERE WAS NO INDICATION OF A PROBLEM. THE DRIVER WAS THE ONLY PERSON INJURED WITH A TOOTH KNOCKED OUT.*AK

CONSUMER WAS DRIVING BETWEEN 65-67 MILES PER HOUR IN LIGHT-RAIN CONDITIONS TRYING TO EXIT INTO ANOTHER LANE WHEN THE 2001 ISUZU RODEO BEGAN TO HYDROPLANE AND THE CONSUMER NOTICED IMMEDIATELY THAT THE BRAKING SYSTEM WAS NOT WORKING. THE CONSUMER LOSS ALL CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE WHEN IT THEN SPUN OUT IN A 360 DEGREE RADIUS AND HIT INTO A CEMENT BARRIER. THE REAR END OF THE 2001 ISUZU RODEO WAS THE FIRST IMPACT. AFTER COLLIDING INTO THE CEMENT BARRIER AT UNKNOWN SPEED THE 2001 ISUZU RODEO SPUN OUT AGAIN IN A 360 DEGREE RADIUS WHERE IT WAS THEN HIT BY 2 OTHER VEHICLES.
