Common 2008 Isuzu I-370 problems

The 2008 Isuzu i-370 has been reported to have several common problems, primarily related to exterior lighting and brake systems.

One of the most significant issues is related to the brake lamp switch, which may not work as designed due to contamination in the switch. This recall affects 185,903 model year 2004-2009 Colorado, GMC model year 2009-2004 Canyon, model year 2006 I-280, I-350, model year 2007-2008 I-290, and I-370, passenger vehicles originally sold in or currently registered in certain states. The affected vehicles have a brake lamp switch that may not work as designed due to contamination in the switch. This issue can lead to a failure of the brake lights to illuminate, which can increase the risk of a crash. To fix this problem, dealers will inspect and replace the necessary components as specified in the recall bulletin free of charge.

Another common problem with the 2008 Isuzu i-370 is related to the fog lights, which may turn on unexpectedly. This issue can be caused by a malfunctioning fog light switch, which can lead to the fog lights remaining on even when the driver turns them off. This can cause the vehicle's battery to drain, resulting in a no-start condition. To fix this problem, the fog light switch may need to be replaced.

In addition to these specific issues, there are also some general problems that have been reported by owners of the 2008 Isuzu i-370. These include issues with the vehicle's tires, such as low or high air pressure, slow leaks, or flat tires. These issues can lead to a reduced level of safety and performance, and may require the driver to replace the affected tires.

It's important to note that these issues are based on complaints from owners of the 2008 Isuzu i-370, and may not represent the overall reliability or safety of the vehicle. However, they do provide valuable information for potential buyers and current owners of the vehicle, and may help to identify areas where maintenance or repairs may be necessary.
