Isuzu Trooper Accidents

The Isuzu Trooper was a mid-size SUV produced by the Japanese auto maker Isuzu between 1981 and 2002. It was exported worldwide as the Isuzu Bighorn, Isuzu Trooper, Honda Horizon, Acura SLX, Chevrolet Trooper, Vauxhall/Opel Monterey, and Holden Jackaroo. It was a huge seller in the sport utility vehicle segment.

There were two generations of the Trooper produced – the first spanning 1981 through 1991, and the second from 1992 through 2002 when Isuzu ceased export of the model. It began its production run being somewhat primitive and underpowered, offered only with a 4 cylinder motor, standard 5 speed manual transmission, and part-time four-wheel drive system. As the first generation progressed, it became more luxurious, and offered more amenities, including a V6 engine. The second generation was more refined, and was available with two-wheel drive.

"Of the 118 vehicles that Consumer Reports has tested on its short-course emergency-avoidance maneuver in the past 13 years, only the Suzuki Samurai, in 1988; the Isuzu Trooper and its twin, the Acura SLX, in 1996; and now the Mitsubishi Montero Limited tipped up so severely as to be judged 'Not Acceptable.' It is highly unusual for a vehicle in our tests to tip up on two wheels." -Consumer Reports
