2007
ENGINE
WAS DRIVING AND TRANSMISSION RANGE SENSOR WENT BAD AND CAR JUMPED OUT OF GEAR NO WARNING. TRAFFIC BEHIND ALMOST COLLIDED. MY 4 YEAR OLD WAS IN BACK SEAT. VERY SCARY. CALLED SUZUKI AND THEY SAID THIS IS AN EXTREMELY COMMON PROBLEM CONSIDERING MY MAKE, MODEL, MILEAGE. SO WHY AM I, A SINGLE DISABLED MOTHER, RESPONSIBLE FOR GETTING A WELL KNOWN, UNSAFE MANUFACTURER ISSUE REPAIRED..... I CAN'T AFFORD THIS AND FROM WHAT I WAS TOLD MOST PEOPLE WITH SIMILAR ISSUE HAD THIS PROBLEM NOT ONLY ONCE BUT FEW MONTHS AFTER GETTING REPAIR DONE. THIS IS EXTREMELY UNSAFE! CAR SHIFTING AND STALLING WHILE AT FULL SPEED! ME AND MY SON COULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUSLY HURT! PLANNING TO CALL SUZUKI CUSTOMER RELATIONS TO SEE IF THEY CAN FIX ISSUE BECAUSE IT IS NOT FAIR THAT I HAVE TO COME UP WITH WAY TO REPAIR SUCH A DANGEROUS PROBLEM SO MANY SUZUKI OWNERS HAVE EXPERIENCED.
