Last I heard, they have set out a set of guidelines on who qualifies. It's pretty messy. I think now the class action is dropped it could get hard to get it corrected under warranty. But as always, you hear all the bad stories and no good ones. I have read a couple of comments where Isuzu have come to the party but it seems to be dealership isolated. If you're looking to buy a new DMax, check to see if they are replacing the component to correct the issue. I read that all DMax's assembled after about August have the new control arm. I'm yet to challenge the issue, if in fact I do have the problem and will post accordingly. I'll see if I can find the lastest update on what constitutes a warranty fix and post here. Cheers mate. Hope that helps. Have a safe and enjoyable Xmas/NY mate.
Hey mate - I bought bt50 2022 with the bump steer issue - 10000k the tyres were gone. Didn't complain to Mazda because overall the vehicle was phenomenal and got it fixed with Fulcrum - cost $3200 fitted - best money I spent. Developed in Australia and no regrets. Could have waited or whined to Mazda but as I work in industry- can see the wider picture - maybe get compensated in the future but futile in the short term. Fulcrum did a fantastic job with their R&D - tires are fantastic with no feathering.
Good to know mate. I hear you buddy. I expect I may take the same path once funds are available in line with the suspension upgrade that is yet to come.
Go Commander....Keep On Truckin.... A Great Truckin Review.....
I miss the cruiser but only in view on the setup. The Dmax will soon enough get setup once I'm back on the Gold.
Good review Old Fella. What is Isuzu's position/advice on the unusual tyre wear you mentioned?
