ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING, STEERING:RACK AND PINION, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:WIRING
THIS IS A ROUGH DRAFT OF THE LETTER I WILL BE SENDING TO SUZUKI: I BOUGHT MY SUZUKI FORENZA IN FEBRUARY OF 2005. I HAVE TAKEN MY CAR THREE TIMES TO SUZUKI OF WEST BROWARD FOR AN OIL LEAK. THE FIRST TIME THEY TOLD ME THAT I HAD AN AFTERMARKET OIL FILTER (FROM MEINEKE). I HAD MY DOUBTS THAT THIS WAS THE PROBLEM. I AUTHORIZED THAT THEY CHANGE THE OIL FILTER. WHEN I BROUGHT MY CAR HOME IT WAS STILL LEAKING. I WAS CHARGED $28.04 FOR THE SERVICE THAT DIDN'T SOLVE THE PROBLEM. I BROUGHT THE CAR BACK AND IT WAS DIAGNOSED AS HAVING A POROUS OIL PAN. I WAS NOT REFUNDED (NOR OFFERED TO BE REFUNDED) MY $28.04 FOR THE OIL CHANGE AND FILTER CHANGE. THE PARTS WERE NOT IN STOCK AND I WAS TOLD THAT THEY WOULD ARRIVE THE SAME WEEK. THEY ARRIVED THE FOLLOWING TUESDAY AFTERNOON. THE OIL PAN WAS REPLACED. THE CAR WAS STILL LEAKING OIL. I TOOK IT A THIRD TIME AND THEY COULD NOT DETERMINE THE CAUSE. THEY SAID THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE VEHICLE. BESIDES THE OIL LEAK, THE POWER STEERING HAS BEEN MAKING A HUMMING SOUND WHEN I WOULD TURN THE STEERING WHEEL. THIS PROBLEM I TOOK TO BILL SEIDLES SUZUKI IN MIAMI. I WAS TOLD THAT THE RACK AND PINION WAS DIRTY. THIS SEEMED TO WORK FOR SOME TIME BUT NOW THERE IS STILL A LOWER HUM. BEFORE THESE TWO SETBACKS, THERE WERE MINOR PROBLEMS THAT AROSE AFTER THE 36,000 MILE BUMPER-TO-BUMPER WARRANTY WAS EXPIRED. A BULB WENT OUT IN THE DASH AND THE FOG-LIGHT BULBS WOULD CONTINUOUSLY BURN OUT. I BELIEVE THIS IS A GROUNDING PROBLEM IN THE CAR THAT PRODUCES INTERFERENCE ON THE RADIO DIRECTLY RELATED TO MY ACCELERATION OF THE CAR. AFTER THE FIRST YEAR OF OWNING THIS CAR, IT HAS BEEN PROBLEM AFTER PROBLEM. I HAVE NOTICED THAT THE SERVICE CENTERS FOR SUZUKI IN SOUTH FLORIDA ARE OF THE POOREST QUALITY. THERE IS NO ATTENTION AND IT SEEMS THAT PARTS ARE NEVER AVAILABLE AT THE FACILITIES FOR REPAIRS. I AM EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED WITH THE PERFORMANCE OF SUZUKI AND THE CUSTOMER SERVICE OF THE COMPANY.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM: INSTRUMENT CLUSTER/PANEL, SUSPENSION, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
1. 4-26-2006, CAR REPAIRED, FOUND THAT THE PURGE VALVE HAS AN INTERNAL FAILURE. R&R PURGE VALVE TO CORRECT. 2. 10-24-2006, CAR REPAIRED, FOUND CODE PO705 TRANS RANGE SWITCH, OPEN INTERMITTENT. R&R TRANS RANGE SWITCH TO CORRECT. 3. 12-21-2006, CAR REPAIRED, POWER STEERING LIGHT ON. FOUND NEEDLE ANGLE SENSOR PART -3721-085Z00. SUZUKI ORDERED PART AND STILL WAITING FOR THE PART TO BE PLACED IN CAR. 4. 12-29-2006, CAR REPAIRED. COMPLAINT WAS ROARING NOISE AND RMP NEEDLE GOING CLOSE TO 5 AND HEAT INDEX EXACTLY IN THE MIDDLE. THE ONLY REPAIR DONE WAS R&R RIGHT WHEEL BEARING IN FRONT AND REPLACED HUB. WHEN ON 1-10-2007 THEY CALLED TO PICK UP CAR ALL REPAIRS DONE, I WENT AND THEY TOLD ME THAT THE CAR IS SOUNDING WORSE AND IT COULD POSSIBLY BE A COUPLING BY THE TIRE AND THAT I NEED A FRONT WHEEL ALIGNMENT AND THAT'S WHY I AM HAVING ALL THESE PROBLEMS AND THAT THERE IS NOTHING WRONG OR FOUND WITH THE RMP NEEDLE GOING CLOSE TO 5. I DROVE THE CAR OUT AND TALKED TO ANOTHER MECHANIC PLUS THE OWNER OF SPEEDEE'S AND THEY ALL LAUGHED, AND SAID THAT'S NOT RIGHT AND I WOULD NOT GO BACK. IN DRIVING THE CAR NOW IT REALLY SOUNDS BAD AND EMBARRASSING, AND SOMETIMES IT WILL NOT GO PAST THE SPEED I'M ON WHILE DRIVING UNLESS I RELEASE THE BRAKES AND PRESS THE GAS AGAIN. THE MECHANIC STATES NOT SAFETY ISSUE. *JB

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE
THREE WEEKS AFTER I PURCHASED MY FORENZA THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, SO I TOOK IT IN TO THE DEALERSHIP & WAS TOLD IT IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THE FORENZA .THE PROBLEM HAD TO DO WITH THE '02 SENSOR' AND CURRENTLY THERE IS NO FIX FOR THE PROBLEM. AT THAT TIME THEY RESET THE CODE PROBLEM. EACH TIME THE PROBLEM RECURRED I WENT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY CAUSED THE LIGHT TO TURN OFF. ON AUGUST 25 THE PROMISED FIXED WAS INSTALLED AND A FEW DAYS LATER THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT TURNED ON AGAIN AND I RETURNED TO THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THAT THE CORRECTION HAS NOT WORKED AND I WOULD BE CONTACTED WHEN ONE WAS AVAILABLE. AS OF OCTOBER 25, 2006, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS STILL ON AND I HAVE NOT BEEN CONTACTED BY NO ONE, EVEN THOUGH I HAVE CALLED, WRITTEN AND EMAILED TO EVERYONE CONNECTED TO THE DEALERSHIP. *NM

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:IGNITION:SWITCH
I PURCHASED A 4 DOOR 2006 SUZUKI FORENZA AND ON THE NEXT MORNING JUST A DAY AFTER I PURCHASED MY CAR I PUT THE KEY IN THE IGNITION AND THE CAR WOULD NOT START. I TRIED AGAIN AND THE CAR STARTED TO SHAKE LIKE IT WAS HAVING A SEIZURE. I LET IT SIT FOR ABOUT 5 MINUTES BEFORE IT STARTED. WHEN I TOLD THE DEALERSHIP OF WHAT HAPPEN I WAS TOLD IT''S A NEW CAR AND I JUST HAD TO BREAK-IT-IN. EVERY MORNING THE CAR WOULD NOT START AFTER SITTING OVER NIGHT. ADDITIONALLY WHEN I DRIVE I WOULD EXPERIENCE SOME DELAYS FROM THE TRANSMISSION, WHEN I ACCELERATE THE CAR WOULD JERK. THE LAST TIME I HAD TO GET THE MY CAR TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. I WAS TOLD THE PROBLEM WAS A RE-PROGRAMMING ERROR. THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT DID WHAT WAS CALLED A PASS THROUGH RE-PROGRAMMING HOWEVER THIS DID NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM. I TOOK THE CAR IN ON SEVERAL OCCASION BECAUSE OF THE SAME PROBLEM. THE LAST INCIDENT HAPPENED ON 9/18/06 AND MY CAR IS STILL BEING TESTED BY THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT AT THE STAR SUZUKI DEALERSHIP AT 1890 DOGWOOD DRIVE IN CONYERS, GA AND THEY ARE UNABLE TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM.. *NM

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING
I BROUGHT A 2006 SUZUKI FORENZA ON JULY 11, 2006. IN TWO OR THREE DAYS I NOTICED SOMETHING WRONG IN THE WAY IT WAS DRIVING. I TOOK IT BACK AND THE GENERAL MANAGER DROVE THE CAR AND STATED NOTHING WAS WRONG. THE NEXT DAY THE CAR WOULD NOT START. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER THEY STATED IT WAS A SOFTWARE PROBLEM AND IT NEEDED NEW SPARK PLUGS. THE CAR WOULDN'T START AGAIN. I WAS TOLD IT NEEDED AN UPGRADED SOFTWARE. THE CAR DOESN'T START IT SOUNDS AS IF IT WANTS TO CUT OFF AND IT DRIVES ROUGH AND STALLS. THIS CAR IS BRAND NEW AND MONTGOMERY KEYSTONE MOTORS WERE FULLY AWARE OF THIS AND STILL DECIDED TO SALE ME A LEMON. I HAVE CONTACTED AN ATTORNEY REGARDING THIS. *NM

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:EXHAUST SYSTEM:EMISSION CONTROL
I TRIED TO RENEW MY TAGS BUT WAS DENIED PENDING VERIFICATION OF COMPLETION OF MANUFACTURERS RECALL. I BOUGHT THIS CAR NEW FROM A DEALER 09/05. I CALLED SUZUKI WITH THE VIN. THEY HAD ALL THE CORRECT INFORMATION ON RECORD BUT I WAS NEVER NOTIFIED OF THIS RECALL WHICH EFFECTS THE SMOG SYSTEM OF MY CAR. THEY TOLD ME ON THE PHONE THERE IS AN "OPEN RECALL" ON MY 2005 SUZUKI FORENZA, RECALL #DG. IT INVOLVES THE FUEL VAPOR VALVES, SO OBVIOUSLY CALIFORNIA WON'T ISSUE ME TAGS UNTIL IT IS FIXED. YOU DON'T EVEN LIST THIS RECALL ON YOUR SITE AND YOU ARE THE REPRESENTATIVES OF THE US GOVERNMENT! WHY DO YOU NOT LIST IT? SUZUKI TOLD ME TO CHECK YOUR SITE TO CONFIRM THE RECALL. I CAN'T TRUST EITHER SUZUKI OR THE NHTSA? PLEASE RESEARCH THIS AND UPDATE YOUR SITE TODAY. *JB

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING
WHILE DRIVING THE CAR I NOTICED THE CAR STARTED MAKING A LOUD NOISE. I ASKED THE OPINION OF A MECHANIC WHO STATED THAT THE NOISE WAS COMING FROM THE MOTOR, AND HE WAS MORE LIKELY SURE THAT IT WAS SOMETHING CALLED "LIFTER." THE NEXT DAY I TOOK THE CAR TO THE CAR DEALER AND LEFT THE CAR THERE SO THEY CAN FIND THE PROBLEM. A WHOLE WEEK PASSED BY AND THEY STILL DIDN'T KNOW WHAT WAS WRONG WITH THE CAR. WHEN I FINALLY GOT IN TOUCH WITH THE PARTS DEPARTMENT THEY STATED THAT THEY NEEDED TO BRING A TECHNICIAN TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM. FINALLY AFTER 3 DAYS I STILL DIDN'T RECEIVE A CALL TO INFORM ME WHAT WAS GOING ON I CALLED MYSELF. I CALLED THE SERVICE MANAGER AND HE STATED THAT THE CAR NEEDED A CERTAIN LIQUID TO CLEAN THE MOTOR. ANOTHER WEEK PASSED BY AND I STILL HADN'T RECEIVED A CALL FROM THEM. SO ONCE AGAIN I CALLED THEM, THIS TIME HE STATED THAT THE CAR NEEDED A MOTOR DUE TO LACK OF MAINTENANCE IN OTHER WORDS NO OIL CHANGES. I BROUGHT OUT TO HIS ATTENTION THAT ON MY WINDSHIELD THERE WAS THE STICKER SHOWING THE LAST TIME I CHANGED THE OIL AND WHEN WAS THE NEXT TIME IT NEEDED A OIL CHANGE. I ALSO STATED THAT IN THE LOCKED COMPARTMENT HE SHOULD FIND RECEIPTS OF PAST OIL CHANGES. HE STATED THAT THE MOTOR EXPENSE HAS TO COME OUT OF MY POCKET EVEN THOUGH THE CAR IS UNDER WARRANTY. AT THIS POINT I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO, I AM MISSING HOURS OF WORK DUE TO NO TRANSPORTATION, I HAVE TO WALK AND CATCH THE BUS WHEN I HAVE NO NEED BEING THAT MY CAR IS UNDER WARRANTY AND THE PROBLEM IT HAS SHOULD BE COVERED. I FEEL I AM NOT TREATED FAIR. I HAVE HEARD ABOUT MANY SIMILAR PROBLEMS REGARDING THIS VEHICLE FROM OTHER CUSTOMERS. THEY TOO HAVE BEEN LIED TO AND NOT HELPED WHAT SO EVER. *JB
