Consumer Description

THE ENGINE WAS BURNING A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF OIL, SO I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE LOCAL ISUZU DEALER TO BE INSPECTED. THE CHIEF MECHANIC TOLD ME THAT THERE WAS A MATERIAL FAILURE IN THE PISTON RINGS CAUSING THE ENGINE TO BURN THE OIL. I CALLED ISUZU USA DIRECTLY AND ASKED FOR ASSISTANCE. I WAS TOLD THAT THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO, EVEN THOUGH ONE OF THEIR MECHANICS DIAGNOSED A "MATERIAL FAILURE" IN THE ENGINE COMPONENT. I HAVE SINCE SPOKEN WITH OTHER MECHANIC WHO HAVE STATED THAT THIS IS A "COMMON PROBLEM" WITH TROOPERS. ANY ASSISTANCE WOULD BE APPRECIATED.
