Overview & Reviews

For 2006, minor package revisions and stability control highlight the changes for the Isuzu SUV.

• Strong six- and eight-cylinder engines, simple interior design, plenty of passenger and cargo room, long warranty.

• Spongy suspension, numb steering, low-grade interior materials, odd exterior proportions, poor expected resale value.

  High Maintenance - 2006 Isuzu Ascender
  By wokeup - January 8 - 8:16 am

  Great looking and a great ride, but very poor mpg on highway 15. Also, at 70,000 mi it fell apart, new water pump, new alternator, stabler track problems, fuel gauge problems, window on passengers side leaks and exhaust leak. Not to mention normal maintenance of breaks and belts. Low initial price, but they make up for it later down the road on repair costs.

  Nightmare - 2006 Isuzu Ascender
  By para333am - November 2 - 8:21 pm

  We purchased our 2006 Ascender brand new. Granted the body is great. I was hit by a large work van which in a car would of sent me to the hospital, the truck held up well. The engine is a nightmare. We just paid it off and it has less than 115,000 miles on it but the engine has died completely. I am very upset since it was purchased new and well taken care of.. I will never buy another one again.. I will only purchase Honda or Toyota from now on.
