SUZUKI Complaints

THE VEHICLE 28610-54G10-000 SUZUKI SOLENOID,SHIFT LOCK IS BAD. CAN NOT FIND PART. IF THEIR ARE RECALLS ON THIS VEHICLE I WOULD LIKE THEM FIXED IF POSSIBLE PLEASE. VEHICLE WILL NOT SHIFT INTO GEAR AND IS ALSO RUNNING LEAN THE COMPUTUER CODE READS LEAN AND BAD SOLENOIDS.

THE AIRBAG DEFECT WARNING LIGHT STAYS ON WHILE DRIVING OR THE CAR BEING ON. SUZUKI DEPOT IN SANT ANA CA REPLACED THE RIGHT FRONT PASSENGER SEAT CUSHION DUE TO A MANUFACTURER RECALL. THE AIRBAG LIGHT FOR THE RIGHT FRONT SEAT SOON ACTIVATED. I TOOK THE CAR TO A LOCAL SHOP. I WAS ADVISED THAT THE CODE C1312 WAS A MANUFACTURER DEFECT RECALL CODE BY SUZUKI CORP. THEY DIDN'T TOUGH THE SEAT. I CALLED SUZUKI DEPOT WHO CALLED SUZUKI TO DETERMINE THE NEXT STEP. SUZUKI HAS NOT FIXED THE AIRBAG LIGHT OR WHAT'S CAUSING IT TO REMAIN LIT. THIS IS AN IMMEDIATE PASSENGER SAFETY ISSUE AND IN MY OPINION SHOULD BE RESOLVED AND FIXED RIGHT AWAY.

IT APPEARS THERE ARE COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ALREADY BUT THIS FIRST PART FOR THE BRAKES/STABILITY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM AREN'T CLASSIFIED AS A RECALL BUT INSTEAD THEY PUT IT AS A CUSTOMER CAMPAIGN. I WAS SLOWING DOWN TO MAKE A TURN AT AN INTERSECTION, THEN THE BACK TIRE LOCKED UP UNDER BRAKING CAUSING THE REAR OF THE BIKE TO START SLIDING OUT WHICH ULTIMATELY MADE THE BIKE HIGH SIDE IN THE CORNER. THIS CONDITION HAS BEEN FOUND TO BE A ISSUE WITH A LOW BATTERY VOLTAGE APON STARTING THE MOTORCYCLE, WHICH DISABLES THE ABS/STABILITY MANAGEMENT. I ENDED UP BREAKING MY ANKLE IN 3 SPOTS, TORN TENDONS, AND HAVE NERVE DAMAGE, THE DOCTOR SAID MY BOOT WAS THE ONLY THING KEEPING MY FOOT FROM BEING TORN OFF. THE ACCIDENT HAPPENED PRIOR TO ANY KNOWN INFORMATION TO ME ABOUT A PROBLEM IN SEPTEMBER 2019. THE NEXT ISSUE HAS ALSO BEEN DOCUMENTED BUT AGAIN NO INFORMATION WAS GIVEN TO ME ABOUT IT AT ALL, I FOUND ALL THIS INFO OUT AFTER THE ACCIDENT. IN JANUARY 2020 GOT A CUSTOMER CAMPAIGN LETTER REGARDING THE ABS WHICH I STARTED LOOKING INTO AND FOUND OUT THESE ARE KNOWN PROBLEMS. THE DEALERSHIP (BOB LANDPHERE MOTORCYCLE) LOCATED IN TIGARD OREGON CLAIMS TO HAVE FIXED THE ISSUE OF A MISS SHIFT/ FALSE GEAR SELECTION. IT ONLY HAPPENS WHEN SHIFTING FROM 1ST TO 2ND WHICH WILL CREATE AN OVER REV SITUATION BECAUSE IT GOES INTO NEUTRAL INSTEAD OF 2ND GEAR WHICH IS DANGEROUS BY ITS SELF BUT IT GETS WORSE, WHEN THEN TRYING TO SELECT 2ND GEAR THE MOTORCYCLE CAN STRETCH/ AND SNAP THE CHAIN WHICH IS VERY DANGEROUS. MY BIKE HAS THIS ISSUE BUT AFTER LOOKING INTO IT, THE DEALERSHIP CLAIMED TO FIX THAT BEFORE I PURCHASED THE MOTORCYCLE & SUZUKI CLAIMS MY BIKE IS OUT OF WARRANTY AND THAT I WILL HAVE TO FIX THIS PROBLEM OUT OF POCKET SINCE ITS "ALREADY" BEEN REPLACED, MY CHAIN IS VERY STRETCHED AND I COULD ONLY IMAGINE ITS NEARING ITS STRETCH LIMIT AND WILL SNAP.

I WAS DRIVING AND STOP ON A RED LIGHT I HEARD A LOUD NOISE FROM UNDER THE VEHICLE SO PUT MY CAR ON PARKING THE LIGHT CHANGE SO I SHIFT TO DRIVE AND THE VEHICLE STAY (NEUTRAL) NO MATTER WHAT GEAR IT IS THE CAR STAY NEUTRAL . SO I STAY ON THE CAR BECAUSE THE WAS LOT OF TRAFFIC THANKS GOD A COP STOP TO HELP ME TO PUSH THE VEHICLE . I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A SHOP NO ONE KNOW WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE.

TRANSMISSION RANGE SENSOR MALFUNCTION. CAR WON'T ACCELERATE OR GO ABOVE 1ST GEAR. $160 TO REPLACE. KNOWN ISSUE WITH THIS VEHICLE.

WHEN YOU SHIFT INTO 2ND GEAR AND ACCELERATE HARD IT FEELS LIKE IT SKIPS AND SHUTTER HARD INTERMITTENTLY. IT DOESNT DO IT EVERYTIME. SCARY FEELING. I USUALLY SHIFT INTO 1ST INTO 3RD WITHOUT ACCELERATING IN SECOND IF POSSIBLE. I CANT BELIEVE SUZUKI BEING A PROMINENT BIKE COMPANY HAS NOT CORRECTED THIS PROBLEM. I WISH I HAD READ UP MORE ON THE THOUSANDS OF THREADS ABOUT THIS SAME TYPE PROBLEM WITH THIS BIKE BEFORE I PURCHASE
