Tl* the contact owns a 2007 suzuki forenza. while the vehicle was stationary, the high beam headlights failed to turn on when prompted. there were no warning indicators illuminated. a dealer and the manufacturer were not made aware of the failure. the failure mileage was approximately 75,000. the vin was not available.
This is the 2nd recall on the drl module in 2 years. i have had to replace my battery terminals on the car. the headlights won't turn off unless i unhook the battery. the recall got started in may 2014, the recall was mailed out in july 2014 and the recall is being done while suzuki does not have the parts. the car company will take for ever to get the parts. i called suzuki and was told that if my car catches on fire it is not their concern. in the meantime i have no other way to work. i can not register the car, can not do the inspection, can not drive it. this is such a hardship for a lot of people. suzuki says that they will put you through to their corporate office, but that is a big joke. is it any wonder why they have not sold new vehicles in the us since 2012.i just want my car fixed and suzuki will take care of all the electrical wrongs on my car. if enough people complain something will get done. *tr
On 11/11/2013 my car was parked in my driveway and caught fire (electrical) this is one of the recalls on this vehicle,(certain passenger vehicles, headlamp low beam or daytime running light (drl) function may be inoperative due to a melted splice pack on the wiring harness). i have had these problems with my vehicle the headlamp low beam and the daytime running light, would not turn on or off. *tr
Headlamp just stopped working . i changed the relay then the fuse and also the light itself still not working i know there was a eall on the model of the year before, i can only assume that they used those parts for my car.. *tr
Dash lights went out in car. checked fuse and no bad fuse. went to drive the car and then noticed had no break lights, head lights, and windows did not roll down. i had high beams if i wanted to drive it while holding the light switch for the high beams.had all fuses checked, and was then told it was in the wiring!!! car had been in the shop before for transmission range sensors. it seems to be one issue after another with this car all of a sudden. tire pressure light come on for a few days then goes out for a few, and that is with new tires. not very happy with this car at all.. *js
My check engine light came on after i placed the car in reverse, it gave a big "thunk" sound. i turned the car off and restarted it. the check engine light is still on. when i went to the dealership to get a diagnosis and they said it was a transmission range sensor gone bad! $250 to replace. as you can see that there are a lot of customer complaints on the same issue but no recall. i have already had the brake light sensor replaced earlier this year and a power steering pump! not liking suzuki right now! *tr
Tl* the contact owns a 2007 suzuki forenza. the contact stated that the headlights would not shut off during the day or night, causing the lights to disable. both the dealer and manufacturer denied any assistance with repairs of the failure. the vehicle was not repaired. the failure mileage was 49,000 and the current mileage was 50,000.
I have had to repair so much on this car in such a short amount of time, i am going nuts...almost every month its something else! i have had blown head gaskets, replaced broken door handles (they broke again), chipping paint (for no reason), brake light switch system, now the transmission range sensor is bad. to replace the tires, the cheapest you can find is $130/tire new. i am out of thousands of dollars when the care was supposed to be under warranty and "americas best powertrain" but everything in the car that is going bad, isn't covered! my 2007 suzuki forenza sucks! *tr
