Isuzu electrical problems

Owners have filed 427 complaints with NHTSA about the electrical system on Isuzu vehicles — 8% of everything reported about the brand, across 23 models. The model that accounts for most of them is the Isuzu Rodeo, worst in 1998.

These are raw counts. A model that sold in millions appears near the top for that reason alone — the grade never compares one model with another.
