I own 2007 suzuki reno since this year. car was running good now its has 85600 miles on it approximately . i haven't had any issue but since last six month, my transmission range sensor causing lots of problem i already spent $350 for repair but now i replaced it second time. when i search online and go to suzuki forum i see lots of owner of suzuki having same issue that i am having. below is the link where you can see so many people already having same issue http://www.carproblemzoo.com/suzuki/forenza/transmission-sensor-problems.php that i am having. i need your help to resolve this issue with the company. if suzuki can install original parts that would be fine. i have already spent lots of money for this specific issue. *tr
Car check engine light was on for a few days, then turned off. when i turned on the car, the check engine light was back on, put car in reverse and clunk, while the display where the r for reverse would have been was scrambled, car still reversed. clunked into drive, and wouldn't switch out of 1st gear. this occurs sporadically. check engine code signaled transmission range sensor malfunction. there are many other occurrences for the same model year which occurs around 70000 miles. *jb
Transmission range sensor is faulty. car bangs into gear from park and reverse, as well as erratically shifts into neutral while driving. *js
Issue noted: a hesitation/loss of power while driving resulting in rapid deceleration and no response from the acceleration pedal/throttle. several "pumps" of the pedal were required and after some coasting, the vehicle accelerator would respond again. issue noted as being worse in warmer temperatures and also when driving on hills/inclines. issue creates a major safety concern when pulling into or across lanes with traffic as the issue may reoccur at any time. on the first occurrence of this issue (10-12-09), vehicle was taken into dealership w/ hesitation and loss of power. the throttle body was replaced at that time with part#13400-85z20. issue reoccurred (06/09/11) and dealership checked electrical connections/ground wires, etc. and applied stabliant 22 to terminals. issue reoccurred (08/24/11) and throttle body was replaced again with part# 13400-85z21. issue reoccurred (01/25/12) and was taken to an import specialist that suspected the foot pedal sensor (est. cost 350.00). subsequent service at dealership included wiring/signal correlation work between throttle body and foot pedal sensor. issue is reoccurring now (07/07/15) and after $1597.22 in repair costs since 2007 with this issue, i am hesitant to spend more money on a poorly engineered product that the manufacturer refuses to accept responsibility for by issuing a recall (similar complaints noted on this site and online.)
