SUZUKI Complaints

I WISH I WOULD HAVE KNOWN ABOUT THIS SOONER THAN NOW. I ALMOST LOST MY HUSBAND DUE TO A CRASH CAUSED FROM THE BRAKES MALFUNCTIONING. WE WERE FORTUNATE THAT SOMEONE WE KNEW WAS ALSO PRESENT AND CALLED ME. IF NOT MY HUSBAND PROBABLY WOULD NOT BE HERE TODAY. HE OBTAINED MULTIPLE FRACTURES, ROAD RASH FROM HEAD TO TOE, CHUNKS OF HIS SKIN WERE MISSING AND CRACKED HIS HEAD OPEN. THE MOTORCYCLE ITSELF WAS TOTALLED AND IN A NUMBER OF PIECES. MY HUSBAND SPENT DAYS IN THE HOSPITAL AND MANY MORE AT HOME RECOVERING. BUT IT ENDED UP CAUSING HIM HIS JOB AND TODAY STILL HAS SOME ISSUES MENTALLY AND PHYSICALLY.

MY 2006 SUZUKI GRAND VITARA HAS BLOWN AT LEAST 4 HEAD LIGHTS SINCE I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE. SUZUKI SAYS THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE TRANSISTOR TO THE LIGHTS,IN THAT IT GIVES TOO MUCH POWER TO THE LIGHTS, THUS CAUSING IT TO BLOW PREMATURELY. THEY HAVE NOT ISSUED A RECALL, SUZUKI NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING ASAP!!

2ND GEAR TRANSMISSION ISSUE. AS I PULLED OFF FROM A GREEN LIGHT IN THE CITY I MOVED INTO 2ND GEAR AND THE BIKE LOST POWER LIKE IT WASN'T IN GEAR AND THEN IT LAUNCHED ITSELF AND I ALMOST HIT THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. WHEN I WENT TO 3RD AND 4TH GEAR EVERYTHING WAS FINE UNTIL I HAD TO GO INTO 2ND GEAR IT WOULD POP OUT OF GEAR.

2014 SUZUKI DL1000. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO MOTORCYCLE ECU UNIT WHICH INCLUDES FUELING ISSUES THAT CAUSES LOW RPM THROTTLE CONTROLS/ RESPONSE AND STALLING VIBRATIONS AND NOISES. *M *JS

I HAVE A 2006 M109R THAT HAS A MAJOR DEFECT IN THE POWERTRAIN. THIS BIKE ONLY HAVE A LITTLE OVER 5,000 MILES ON IT AND IT TENDS TO FALL OUT OF SECOND GEAR BACK INTO NEUTRAL. THIS IS VERY UNSAFE AND COULD VERY WELL CAUSE YOU TO LOOSE CONTROL OF THE BIKE. THERE HAS BEEN A NUMBER OF PEOPLE THAT I HAVE COME ACROSS WITH THE SAME ISSUE. SUZUKI NEEDS TO ADDRESS A RECALL CONCERNING THIS ISSUE BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT OR KILLED. THIS WILL BE THE LAST OF ANY SUZUKI PRODUCT THAT I WILL EVER PURCHASE FOR NOW OR THE NEAR FUTURE BECAUSE THEY OR NOT STANDING BEHIND THERE BRAND EVEN IF IT IS A RISK TO MANY PEOPLE LIVES ACROSS THE COUNTRY.

BOUGHT THE MOTORCYCLE LAST MONTH AND NOTICED THERE IS A "STOP RIDING" RECALL WHICH HAS TO BE PERFORMED IMMEDIATELY. CONTACTED THE DEALER ON 2/10/18 AND THEY ORDERED THE PARTS. CONTACTED THEM AGAIN ON 2/26/18 BUT WAS TOLD NO PARTS HAS BEEN RECEIVED YET. CONTACTED THE MANUFACTURER ON 3/5/18 AND NOTIFIED THE PART IS ON BACK ORDER AND WAITING TO ARRIVE FROM JAPAN. WAS PROMISED THEY WILL ARRIVE IN A COUPLE OF DAYS. HAVEN'T RECEIVED ANY CALLS YET. SPENT A LOT OF MONEY ON A BRAND NEW BIKE TO JUST HAVE IT SITTING IN MY GARAGE AND NOT BEEN ABLE TO USE IT IS RIDICULES AND VERY UNACCEPTABLE.
