I have a very clean 1996 Rodeo that has very low miles and has, very good tires including spare look new very nice, new front shocks , motor is in new shape has been replaced do to overheating from bad water pump . Has new timing belt and water pump, new fuel pumps , new fuel injectors, machine shop cleaned heads and installed brand new hydraulic lifters but still has valve train noise but is not a problem with heads just play on lifters due to its over 80000 miles and they are known for noisy valve train due to too many moving parts with one cam both sides since there is no adjustment so Study the internet and you will find that its a normal sound from play on valve train and has new cam sensor and new oxygen sensors all 4 and new mass airflow sensor ,newer battery , new wheel cover , interior has slight wear very slight ,power windows in good order, radiator perfect, a/c has new compressor and accumulator and Freon and seals. Has new a/c system .paint is in good shape very few nicks and hood has slight dents from hail.. SUV runs and drives like new , transmission shifts like new . This rodeo is very nice and is ready to drive selling to buy another a bigger SUV ,not selling because of any other reason. Replaced belt tensioner for compressor and replaced fan housing for fan to have new bearings had slight play so I replaced to keep from having any issues . Runs and drives like it should. All new oil ,plugs , and service ... Paid 1500.00 with it not running when I bought 3 years ago just now had work performed to get it sold , Spent over 2500.00 on parts and repairs and labor have 4000.00 invested but it has new motor now and fresh heads and head gaskets same cam and valve train if the valve covers are removed which is simple and replace valve train parts heads would be brand new like the block which is new. Has 100 miles on new block . So to sum it up I went overboard on repairs and parts but at least the rodeo is not a vehicle you would buy and have to put it in the shop for repairs ..You can drive it any were and any place and feel sure you have a dependable vehicle that will get you where you are going with out having to be towed home,, I spent the money on vehicle to get it on the road and got it running like I wanted. Runs very well and lots of power I was very surprised on how much pick up and go they have impressive ,,I have never owned a rodeo this was my first project on a rodeo. Very easy to maintain and to get to plugs etc. Vehicle just sat too long so money and to be spent due to it was not being driven and that's why such low miles, with a new 2 year old we are going to buy a full size SUV and just suffer from bad gas millage LOL. My wife wants a Lincoln navigator and selling to buy just that .

GM SUV window switch recall urges owners to park vehicles outside
Thu, 07 Aug 2014It's not unusual for there to be a lag between an automaker announcing a recall and the official documentation showing up on the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration website. So it's no surprise that a recent GM campaign took about a month to appear in its official capacity. However, there appears to be some big differences between the two reports with potential safety implications.
In late June, GM announced that it needed to recall 181,984 examples of the Chevrolet Trailblazer, Buick Rainier, GMC Envoy, Isuzu Ascender and Saab 9-7x from the 2005-2007 model years, plus the 2006 Chevy Trailblazer EXT and 2006 GMC Envoy XL. The new documents paint a slightly different picture with 184,611 needing repaired and different model years listed.
The reason for the fix is still the same, though. It's possible for fluid to contact the master power window switch module in the driver's door, which can corrode the part. Eventually this could cause a short circuit, leaving the buttons inoperable and potentially leading to a fire. But the new NHTSA documents add an important note: "A fire could occur even while the vehicle is not in use. As a precaution, owners are advised to park outside until the remedy has been made."
Junkyard Gem: 1996 Isuzu Trooper
Fri, Sep 9 2022Though Americans had been buying the Isuzu-built Chevrolet LUV pickup since the 1972 model year (plus plenty of Isuzu-derived Chevettes and Chevette components later on), the first widely available Isuzu-badged vehicle available here was the LUV-sibling P'Up. That was the 1981 model year, and the I-Mark (Gemini) and Impulse (Piazza) soon followed. Later in the 1980s, GM (which owned a hefty chunk of Isuzu by that time) began selling Isuzu-built Spectrums and Storms with Chevrolet and/or Geo badges… but Isuzu started its United States business by selling trucks, and that's the only type of Isuzu you could buy new here when the company departed our shores in 2009. The Trooper SUV first went on sale here for the 1984 model year, and eventually the Trooper became the biggest-selling Isuzu in North America. Here's an example from the sales heyday of the middle 1990s, found in a Colorado self-service yard. In its homeland, this truck was known as the Bighorn. Elsewhere around the globe, however, it went by far too many names to list here (though Trooper was the most common). Highlights include the Holden Jackaroo and Caribe 442. Honda's desperation to cash in on the 1990s North American SUV craze led to the creation of an Acura-badged Trooper, known as the SLX and sold here from the 1996 through 1999 model years. As part of this arrangement between Isuzu, GM, and Honda, the Isuzu Rodeo became the Honda Passport here (confusing every North American who had ever bought a Passport-badged Honda Super Cub, which got that name so as not to run afoul of the builders of the Piper Super Cub aircraft) and Isuzu dealers sold Honda Odysseys with Oasis badges. Once we'd gotten a few years into our current century, the only Isuzu-badged vehicles you could buy new here (not counting commercial trucks) weren't even built by Isuzu at that point. One was the Ascender (a badge-engineered Chevy Trailblazer) and the other was the i-Series pickup (a badge-engineered Chevy Colorado). Oh, sure, a handful of Axioms and Rodeos slunk out of American Isuzu showrooms in the early years of the 2000s, but the clock really started ticking for Isuzu USA when the final Troopers showed up for 2002. When this truck was built, Isuzu was engaged in an eye-gouging, kidney-spearing price- and financing-deal war with Mitsubishi Motors and its Montero.
GM recalling 8.4M cars, 8.2M related to ignition problems
Mon, 30 Jun 2014General Motors today announced a truly massive recall covering some 8.4 million vehicles in North America. Most significantly, 8.2 million examples of the affected vehicles are being called back due to "unintended ignition key rotation," though GM spokesperson Alan Adler tells Autoblog that this issue is not like the infamous Chevy Cobalt ignition switch fiasco.
For the sake of perspective, translated to US population, this total recall figure would equal a car for each resident of New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Montana, Delaware, South Dakota, Alaska, North Dakota, the District of Columbia, Vermont and Wyoming. Combined. Here's how it all breaks down:
7,610,862 vehicles in North America being recalled for unintended ignition key rotation. 6,805,679 are in the United States.
