| 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 |
| 2007 | POWER TRAIN | MY FIRST EXP. WITH THIS PROBLEM HAPPENED AS I WAS BACKING OUT OF A PARKING SPACE . I PUT THE CAR IN REVERSE AND IT WENT BACK, BUT I PUT IN DRIVE IT WOULD NOT MOVE, SO I PUT IN 3RD GEAR AND IT MOVE FORWARD SLOWLY UNTIL PUT IN DRIVE AGAIN AND IT WORKED. SECOND TIME A WAS DRIVING ABOUT 40 MPH AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THE CAR GOES INTO NEUTRAL AND I LOSE POWER , AGAIN I PUT IN 3RD AND POWER CATCHES LUCKILY NO ONE BEHIND ME TO SLAM INTO ME. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND ASKED IF THERE HAD BEEN A RECALL ON THIS PROBLEM ,THEY SAID NO BUT WOULD CHECK IT OUT FOR 90 DOLLARS! THEY COULD NOT REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM AND DIDN'T DO ANYTHING. THIRD TIME TONIGHT 1-20-13 IM LEAVING WORK AND THE CAR GETS ME TO THE GROCERY SORE ALRIGHT, BUT LEAVING FOR HOME IT GOES FROM DRIVE TO NEUTRAL AND NO POWER AGAIN PUT IT 3RD AND I GET HOME DRIVING 15 MPH .WHEN TRYING TO PARK IT WONT GO INTO PARK I HAVE TO PUT IN NEUTRAL ,TURN KEY OFF AND HAND BRAKE . TURNED THE CAR BACK ON TO SEE IF IT WOULD WORK RIGHT AND ALL I WOULD GET WAS A SLASH OVER THE P AND THE D. *TR |
