SUZUKI Complaints

MY 2006 SUZUKI FORENZA LOOSES ACCELERATION WHILE DRIVING; SIMPLY PUT THE GAS PEDAL DOESN'T WORK. WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT SPEED, AND WITH OUT CRUISE CONTROL, I WILL LET UP ON THE ACCELERATOR AND WHEN THE ACCELERATOR IS PRESSED IN AGAIN I HAVE NO ACCELERATION. THIS TYPE OF INCIDENT HAS OCCURRED NUMEROUS TIMES ON THE HIGHWAY; EVEN WHILE ATTEMPTING TO PASS A VEHICLE. THIS IS VERY CONCERNING BECAUSE I FEEL I MIGHT BE RUN OVER BY A VEHICLE BEHIND ME IF I LOOSE ACCELERATION. THE VEHICLE HAS A TENDENCY TO LUNGE FORWARD WHILE STOPPED DUE TO THIS MALFUNCTION OF THE THROTTLE BODY. THE CAR IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE ANYWHERE WITH THE POSSIBILITY THAT IT WILL NOT ACCELERATE PROPERLY OR LUNGE FORWARD INTO A CAR AT A STOP LIGHT. I HAVE CONTACTED SUZUKI AND THEY TELL ME IT IS NOT A MALFUNCTION AND WILL NOT HONOR THEIR 7YR; 70,000 MILE WARRANTY. I HAVE HAD SEVERAL TRIPS TO THE MECHANIC TO TRY TO FIX THE PROBLEM; AND WE HAVE WORKED OUR WAY THROUGH EVERYTHING DOWN TO THE VERY EXPENSIVE THROTTLE BODY. I WENT TO A DEALERSHIP AND ALL THEY DID WAS CLEAR THE CODES; 10 MILES DOWN THE ROAD THE CAR STARTED DOING THE SAME THING ALL OVER AGAIN. I WOULD LIKE THIS FIXED BEFORE THERE IS A SEVER ACCIDENT BECAUSE I'M DRIVING A DEFECTIVE VEHICLE. *TR

MY SUZUKI GRAND VITARA 2006, HAS ERROR CODE B1312 WHICH IS A FAILURE OF THE PASSENGER SEAT AIRBAG SENSOR. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE SINCE IT WILL NOT DEPLOY ANY AIRBAGS IN CASE OF AN ACCIDENT. I HAVE CONTACTED SUZUKI BUT THEY HAVE BEEN DODGING THIS ISSUE. I BELIEVE THAT SUZUKI SHOULD PAY FOR THIS ENTIRE REPAIR AS A SAFETY RECALL.

MY MOTORCYCLE HAS FAILED TO GO INTO GEAR AND HAS CAME OUT OF GEAR ON SOME OCCASIONS PUTTING MY LIFE AND OTHERS IN DANGER! I BELIEVE THAT THE MANUFACTURE SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE TO FIX SAID ISSUE. I HAVE TAKEN MY MOTORCYCLE TO THE DEALER AND HAVE GOTTEN NO WHERE THEY SAID IM NOT SHIFTING HARD ENOUGH! I KNOW PEOPLE WHO ARE HAVING THIS ISSUE WITH THE SAME MODEL. *TR

I HAVE A 2007 SUZUKI M109R MOTORCYCLE THAT REPEATEDLY POPS OUT OF SECOND GEAR UNDER ACCELERATION. THIS CAUSES A DANGEROUS SITUATION OF LACK OF POWER. I HAVE ALMOST BEEN REAR ENDED NUMEROUS TIMES. THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS BIKE AND SUZUKI FAILS TO STAND BEHIND THE REPAIR. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2003 SUZUKI SV1000S MOTORCYCLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT FUEL WAS LEAKING ONTO THE MOTOR AND OVERFLOWING INTO THE CHARCOAL CANISTER.

AS A RESULT, THE FUEL TANK NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE DEFECTIVE FUEL TANK WAS SENT TO THE DEALER TO BE INSPECTED WHO CONFIRMED DIAGNOSIS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE WHO DID NOT OFFER ANY ASSISTANCE SINCE THE MOTORCYCLE HAD BEEN PREVIOUSLY REPAIRED UNDER NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 06V013000 ( FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:STORAGE:TANK ASSEMBLY).
