I JUST PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE 9 DAYS AGO AND TOOK IT THROUGH INSPECTIN TODAY. IT FAILED DUE TO THE CODES P0008,P0009,P0018,P0017,P0016 WHICH ARE THE TIMING CHAINS AND TWIN CAM POSITION SENSORS. THE REPAIR TO THE VEHICLE IS $1500.00 OR MORE DUE TO THE EXTENT OF THE PROCEDURE FOR THE REPAIR. I WAS TOLD THAT THIS EXPENSE IS MY COST EVEN THOUGH I ONLY HAD THE VEHICLE 9 DAYS. THIS IS AN ON GOING ISSUE I HAVE NOTICED WITH ALL THESE VEHICLES WITHIN THE YEAR OF 2007. SUZUKI TOLD ME THAT IT IS NOT IN THE MAN. WARRANTY ANYMORE DUE TO THE MILES. I REALLY NEED HELP THERE IS NOT EVEN A RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE. *TR

THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON IN THE VEHICLE AND WHEN CHECKED BY THE DEALER, THE CAMS AND TIMING CHAIN ARE NOT IN TIMING. THE CAMS HAVE SHIFTED AND THE TIMING CHAIN MAY BE STRETCH. SEEMS TO BE A COMMON FAILURE TO ALL OF THESE VEHICLES AND THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL FOR THIS SITUATION. ALSO DUE TO THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT THE REMOTE START ISN'T WORKING EITHER. *TR

THE HEADLIGHTS BURN OUT ABOUT EVERY 4 MONTHS. THIS IS A VERY EXPENSIVE PROBLEM. *JS
