 What things have gone wrong with the car?Brakes, Tires, Transmission
 General comments?My wife and I purchased our 98 Izuzu Rodeo in November of 1998. Since then we have had nothing but problems. First the truck shook and vibrated at speeds over 20 mph. After 6 trips back to the dealer and 13k milesand each time being told that the tires needed to be balanced they told us the tires were "out of round" meaning they were wearing unevenly and would need to be replaced. The truck had a little over 13k miles and we were told that we would have to go thru GoodYear for any warranty replacement. Good Year replaced the tires but prorated the warranty and we had to pay almost $200. Then the rims started to peel..The dealer replaced all 4 wheels under warranty. Then at about 40k miles we had to replace both the front and rear rotors as well as brakes. Then the check engine light came on and the manifold gasket had to be replaced. Then the shift sensor in the transmission went bad costing us $300 to replace. Then the wheels began to peel again. Took it back to the dealer and was told that it was not covered under the 12k 12 month warranty. So this past sunday the same switch in the transmiission went bad again. 12 months and 20 days from the date of inital repair. The dealer has told me that since its past the 12 month warranty period I would have to pay for the part and labor.
