CarFaultIsuzu Hombre — reported problems
CarFaultIQ holds 123 evidence records for the Isuzu Hombre (1996–2002), drawn from official sources and owner complaints.
What owners report: issue areas
Owner complaints are classified by the system they concern: 86 classifications in all. One complaint can concern several systems, so these add up to more than the number of complaints.
- Visibility (glass, wipers, mirrors)40 (46.5%)Official recall records for this system: 3, covering model years 1996.
- Brakes10 (11.6%)
- Electrical system8 (9.3%)
- Air bags (restraint system)6 (7.0%)
- Engine6 (7.0%)
- Equipment & accessories4 (4.7%)
Other / uncategorized: 2 classifications (2.3%) were not assigned to a specific system by the source. They are counted but not treated as an issue area.
These are counts of records held by CarFaultIQ, not a failure rate. More records can simply mean more vehicles were sold or more owners reported. No vehicles-in-service figure exists in this data, so no reliability or risk score can be derived from it.
What the records are about, by source
Each source is kept separate: owner complaints, recalls, manufacturer communications and investigations are different kinds of record and are never added together. All model years.
- Owner complaints (74 records, model years 1996) are most frequently classified under: visibility (glass, wipers, mirrors), brakes and electrical system.
"Most frequently classified under" reports how the records are filed by the source. It is not a finding about causes, and a record can be filed under more than one system. Read the individual records
