Best SUV I’ve ever owned!
I bought my 2007 Isuzu Ascender brand new. It’s been the best, most reliable vehicle I have ever owned. It currently has 127,000 miles on it and runs like a dream. I feel steady in it, not like I am about to tip over which I’ve felt while test driving other SUV’s. Yes, I have had to do work to it throughout the years, but the things I’ve had done are because of typical wear and tear. One bad thing though is the at the body seems to be wearing out faster than the engine. My back hatch hinges rusted out and I can’t open the hatch now. Other than that, if I had an opportunity to buy another Isuzu Ascender, I would buy it in a heartbeat. I baby my SUV, give it regular maintenance, and do repairs as they become necessary. I don’t push it hard, but if I need to, such as passing a car quickly, it moves! I love the feeling of stability on the road and the way it sits up high. God blessed me with this SUV. It’s gotten me through several moves and through the United States. And the air conditional still works great after all these years! I love my SUV and plan on running it until it can’t go another inch!

Worst car I've owned
Bought my ascender new in 2007 it now has 42,000 miles on it and the gas /fuel sending unit went out I looked online and found out that starting in 2004 these vehicles have had repeated problems with this but yet isuzu won't issue a recall on the vehicles even though it is clearly a defect in them . I had to have it fixed at my own expense . Shame on you Isuzu.

I got this as a gift from my hubby. Within the first month my first blow out. Then the fuel gage would act up 5 times total. My power controlling the windows and locks and mirrors. 3 times. I have had it and the battery as well, Don't recommend this vehicle

great car good deal
i had the car for a while now and it easily the most comfortable ride i had. it handles the road seamlessly and quietly. it is not the most beautiful vehicle out there but i bought an suv and not a beauty queen. they cost much more and the ride is usually not as comfortable... sorry for the crudeness, i caught myself too late and the delete button is busy deleting my open letter to the WHO.

great incentives
Wasn't planning on getting another Isuzu, but the deal offered was phenomenal. Just like my 2002 Rodeo, I couldn't believe I could get a six-cylinder SUV built on a truck frame for so cheap--I dreaded the possibility of settling for a "compact SUV."

I like
Lot better than anything else that I have had. It rides real smooth and is extremely comfortable. It is really nice on the inside as well.

In 3 years, it's been in the service dept 8 times!
The car rides well and looks nice, but does not perform well. Mulitple items stopped working within the first 30,000 miles, and continue to have the same problems (ie window motors go out often, air conditioning goes out, seals give way and fans go out, windshield wipers stop working). Some of these items were recalled, however none of the recall notices were received, despite the car being purchased new.
