Problems with 2007 Suzuki Forenza VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL

I just bought a 2007 suzuki forenza on march 10th, i drove it from the dealer ship to my home, around 40 miles, drove it at 55 and 45 and 35 all good until the last mile of my journey. i was going a steady 35 and i could tell my car was slowing down without me letting my foot off the gas at all. i let off and reapplied gas and it acted normal for 1/16 of a mile and did it again but when i let off and reapplied it accelerated a little and then slowed down again. i looked at my gages and my tachometer was going from 1500 to 2000 rpms making the car bounce back and forward, and so i let off and reapplied enough times to make it home. i'm lucky there wasn't anyone on the road. and i drove it across a 4 mile long bridge and thank god it didn't happen there! i see that there are alot of complaints ts on this issue and suzuki is claiming it's routine maintenance.. you never can tell when it's going to go out and some people have to replace them every 9 months.. they should make the part good enough to last longer. it's a safety hazzard in alot of people's opinions. pulling into heavy traffic can be pretty scary when you don't know if your car is going to move 5 feet and then not register your foot on the gas pedal. it's dangerous.

Car feels like it slips out of gear , sometimes on freeway feels almost like transmission. it is the transmission range sensor and i have almost been rear-ended several times. as you have to pull over and wait a while before starting the car back up this is always in motion north charleston sc , greenville sc and columbia sc the car has always been towed, i can send towing information through state farm, who dropped my roadside because of this and one time through travelers insurance car has been to the truck farm in easley sc twice they can not find a code on it rick hendricks north charleston 3 times express auto in columbia sept 17th 2015 and transmissions on dorchester rd north charleston and a+ also north charleston.

I was driving down my street in my 2007 suzuki forenza with 71,510 miles, then on the panel it started flashing (p,n,d with a diagonal line through them) and i took it to autozone and they said it was the transmission... *tr

I was driving down the expressway and i was doing 65 mph and my car started stalling as i pressed the gas then i floored the gas because my car was starting to reverse down the expressway all of a sudden my car froze and my computer on my dash had all the letters scrambled for drive, reverse, park etc and had a line through it i was soooo scared i had a big truck behind me. *tr

When turning my car on and putting it into reverse, the check engine light came on and my car jerked into gear and where the r should appear for reverse on the dash, all the letters were scrambled together. the car drove in reverse and then when i put it into drive, it jerked again and then would hardly accelerate. after driving the car for a couple minutes, turning it off, and turning it back on, it would finally accelerate but the check engine light would still be on and the gears would still jerk. the check engine light would go off after a couple days and everything would be fine and then it would all start again. then my car is starting to switch over into neutral when driving 60mph+ and now it will do this multiple times when driving at any speed. when it switches over to neutral like this while i'm driving, the d for drive on the dash will become scrambled like it does when it jerks into reverse. the problem is getting worse. *kb

Tl*the contact owns a 2007 suzuki forenza. while driving approximately 45 mph on normal road conditions applying pressure to the accelerator pedal, followed by a low power response, the engine warning light illuminated intermittently. an independent mechanic stated that the failure was contributed to the throttle body. the vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer for a second opinion and the technician stated the failure was related to the throttle body and needed to be replaced. the wiring within the throttle body was replaced. the failure continued after the vehicle was repaired. the throttle body has been on back order for quite some time. the vehicle will be repaired when the part becomes available. the contact is aware of the safety risk involved. the failure mileage was 57,800 and the current mileage was 60,000.

Tl*the contact owns a 2007 suzuki forenza. the check engine light illuminated on the instrument panel. the contact took the vehicle to the dealer for repair and two codes were produced from the diagnostic, the pedal position sensor and volt coalition. the second code dealt with the throttle system (throttle actuator system), which has limited power. the vehicle is running on 15% power and is dangerous to drive. the dealer called the tech line and they stated that they were aware of the failure and were working on a repair; however, there is currently no remedy. the failure mileage was 14,870. updated 4/28/09 *cn the consumer stated when she pulled out from the parking lot, the vehicle would not accelerate properly. in addition, there was a problem with the seatbelt. at times it would not click, even after several attempts. updated 04/30/09. *jb
