What owners wrote
Isuzu axiom 2002. My wife was trying to merge onto james river freeway in springfield, mo from hwy 65 n. It was raining but her speed was less than 40 MPH. She attempted to accelerate to merge into the traffic pattern and the SUV spun out of control and sent us down a boulder embedded embankment of about 30 feet. The SUV bounced over the boulders and came to a rest at the bottom of the incline. Fortunately we were able to 4 wheel drive out, two ruined tires, and the front bumper assembly ripped from the frame.
Failure of rear suspension lower link component drivers side from frame due to corrosion, caused vehicle to spin 180 degrees, in light traffic, no collision. Vehicle had to be towed, speed was 30-35MPH, rain, cranberry highway rt 28 in wareham ma, vehicle is 2002 isuzu axiom, approx, 115,000 miles, I understand that there is an investigation on this problem.
