1994 ISUZU TROOPER Structureframe And Members Problems

IN 1997-8, I NOTIFIED ISUZU DEALERSHIP OF A 'CLICKING NOISE' IN THE F.L. WHEEL/SUSPENSION AREA WHILE TURNING. INFORMED THAT IT WAS NORMAL SUSPENSION NOISE, I CONCENTED. IN 2000, I OBSERVED A CRACK IN THE FRAME, THE CLICKING GREW WORSE. AND I'M CONCERNED THAT THIS COULD LEAD TO A CATASTROPHIC EVENT. ISUZU CORP SAID TO CONTACT DEALER, WHO SAID OUT OF WARRANTY, COULD HAVE BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT, NOT A DEFECT OF STEEL FRAME INTEGRITY. THOUGH AN EFFECTIVE, SERVICE MANAGER; I IMAGINE HE WAS NOT A STRUCTRUAL ENGINEER. SO, I MET W/A FAA INSPECTOR WHO SAID THIS WAS CLEARLY A FAULTY COMPONENT AND THAT I SHOULD CONTACT YOU. I AM STILL IN CONTACT WITH THE ORGIONAL ISUZU DEALER 'MECHANIC' WHO WILL SUBMIT AS WITNESS IF NECESSARY.*AK

DRIVERS SIDE FRONT FRAME MEMBER BROKE DUE TO METAL FATIGUE AND POOR WORKMANSHIP. THE FRAME BROKE (FELL APART) BY THE STEERING BOX JOINT AND PART OF THE FRONT SUSPENSION ASSEMBLY - THAT INCLUDES LOWER AND UPPER CONTROL ARMS AND THE SHOCK ABSORBER MOUNTING BRACKETS. TOTAL CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE WAS LOST. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR SPECIAL WARRANTY EVALUATION ON MAY 11, 2000. STILL TO THIS DATE THERE IS NO ANSWER FOR THE REPAIR REQUEST. THE VEHICLE IS STILL AT THE DEALER.
