Consumer Description

ENGINE SEIZURE, SPUN BEARINGS DUE TO NO OIL. FURTHER INVESTIGATION FOUND THAT ISUZU SUGGESTS CHANGING OIL AT 7500 MILE INTERVALS, BUT ALSO CONSIDERS 1QT OIL USAGE PER 1000 MILES IS "ACCEPTABLE" USAGE FOR THE 3.2L V6 205HP ENGINE. TRUCK HOLDS 6 QUARTS OF OIL, AND I HAD OIL CHANGED BY REPUTABLE OIL CHANGE PLACES EVERY 5000 MILES. REPORTS OF 1QT OIL USAGE PER 800 MILES FAIRLY COMMON ON INTERNET AUTO BULLETIN BOARDS. DO THE MATH.
