AIR BAGS:FRONTAL:SENSOR/CONTROL MODULE, AIR BAGS:FRONTAL
UNSURE OF EXACT DATE - NOT ALL THAT IMPORTANT. MY FRIEND SAT IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT OF MY 2004 SUZUKI XL7. AFTER STARTING OUT DRIVING, I NOTICED THAT MY AIRBAG LIGHT WAS ON, AND MY CLOCK WAS FLASHING. I CONTACTED THE LOCAL SUZUKI DEALERSHIP AND THEY STATED THAT BECAUSE THE FRONT PASSENGER WEIGHED OVER APPROXIMATELY 225 POUNDS, THAT THE SENSOR IN THE ADVANCED AIR BAG SYSTEM NEEDED TO BE RESET. THE DEALERSHIP STATED THIS IS A KNOWN DEFECT, AND THAT THE VEHICLE WAS SAFE TO DRIVE. DEALERSHIP ALSO STATED THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH OTHER MAKES/MODELS OF VEHICLES, AND IT NOT ONLY EFFECTS SUZUKI, BUT OTHERS AS WELL. THIS IS A MAJOR CONCERN AS THERE ARE MANY TIMES THAT I WILL HAVE SOMEONE OVER APPROX. 225 POUNDS SITTING IN MY VEHICLE. AM I SUPPOSE TO GO TO THE DEALERSHIP ONCE A WEEK TO GET THIS SENSOR RESET? PLEASE ADVISE AS TO THE ISSUE AND CORRECTIONS THAT ARE BEING TAKEN. *AK

STRUCTURE:BODY, SEAT BELTS, SEATS, ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
WHILE DRIVING ON FLAT ROAD, THE VEHICLE DID NOT ACCELERATE OVER 50-60 MPH. THE DEALERSHIP WAS UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. *AK THE CONSUMER PURCHASED THE VEHICLE WITH WHAT SHE THOUGHT WAS MINOR COSMETIC PROBLEMS THEN THEY STARTED TO GET WORSE AS TIME WENT ON, THERE WAS A DRAGGING WHICH CAME FROM THE REAR INTERIOR, THE SEAT BELT HOLDERS RATTLED, THE LEATHER SEATS HAD SINK HOLES WHERE THE BATTING WAS COMING FROM THE LEATHER, AND THERE WAS A LOUD ROAR COMING FROM THE ENGINE. *SCC *JB
