Used 1994 Isuzu Trooper SUV Consumer Reviews
"Fail-Safe Nighmare"
Except for being very sluggish, this would normally be a great vehicle. However, I have had a horrible experience with the transmission "fail-safe" system. System causes car to involuntarily go into third (?) gear and must be re-set by turning off engine. Ruined one transmission already and dealership still cannot correct problem. A true "lemon" case.
1994 Isuzu Trooper
I bought a used 1994 Trooper several years ago. Major expenses have been just new tires & shocks. It's great to take on long trips due to its comfort and visibility. It also feels very solid.
Isuzu Fun
Bought this truck three years ago with just under 100,000 miles on it. I have not had to put a penny into it as far as repairs are concerned. At 140,000 still starts on the first crank. Tons of room for band equipment and GREAT on long trips. No for those concerned with fuel economy (17-19)MPG average, but will go ANYWHERE anytime. Easy to work on/ Easy not to have to. I love the truck.
Never A Problem
I've owned this vehicle for 8 years, with only one minor problem (quickly corrected by dealer) with power window. Quality is impressive.
Who made the transmission?
Other than the transmission which I fixed twice @ 110000 and then at 115000 this has been one of the best cars I've owned.I would by another one. BTW the best 4x4 I've ever owed was a 1987 Ford bronco II Engine went @160000 great size for off road and ground clearance.
