| 2007 | LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES | THE ITEMS THAT ARE FAULTY ON THIS 2007 SUZUKI FORENZA ARE THE PAINT ON THE OUTSIDE DOOR HANDLES, AND THE INSIDE DOOR LATCHES. I BOUGHT THIS 2007 SUZUKI FORENZA CAR BRAND NEW AND WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR, I HAD TO REPLACE 2 OF MY DOOR HANDLE LATCHES INSIDE BECAUSE THEY BROKE OFF. NOT LONG AFTER THAT, MY OTHER TWO LATCHES BROKE. IN THE 1ST YEAR, THE PAINT ON THE DOOR HANDLES BEGAN TO WEAR OFF. WHEN I FIRST HAD MY DOOR REPAIRED, I WAS TOLD BY THE SUZUKI REPAIR SHOP REPRESENTATIVE, THAT THE BREAKING LATCHES WAS A COMMON COMPLAINT WITH THIS PARTICULAR MODEL . *TR |
