| 2007 | AIR BAGS | SEVERAL YEARS AGO, THE WARNING/REMINDER LIGHTS FOR THE PASSENGER SEAT BELT AND AIRBAG CAME ON AND WOULD NOT GO OFF. I CALL THE DEALER AND ASK ABOUT ANY RECALLS, I WAS TOLD THAT THERE WERE NO RECALLS FOR THIS SPECIFIC PROBLEM AND I WOULD HAVE TO PAY TO HAVE THE CAR DIAGNOSED AND REPAIRED. LAST YEAR, I HAD MY CAR SERVICE AT JACK PHELAN SUZUKI IN COUNTRYSIDE, IL AND INQUIRED ABOUT IT AGAIN. I WAS TOLD THE SAME THING; I WOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE REPAIR. I RECENTLY RECEIVED NOTIFICATION FROM SUZUKI ABOUT THE SAME PROBLEM AND THEY WOULD REPAIR AT NO COST TO ME, PROVIDED THAT THE VEHICLE IS LESS THAN 10 YEARS OLD OR LESS THAN 120,000 MILES. MY CAR HAS 155,00 MILES. I CALLED AND ASKED IF THEY WOULD MAKE AN EXCEPTION AND WAS TOLD NO. I REPORTED THIS PROBLEM AND THEY WERE WELL AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM AND NOW ARE REFUSING TO FIX IT. I THINK THEY SHOULD REPAIR IT, AS THEY HAVE KNOWN ABOUT THIS ISSUE FROM OTHER OWNERS BESIDES MYSELF. I DON'T KNOW WHERE ELSE TO GO TO FOR HELP AND WOULD REALLY APPRECIATE SOME ASSISTANCE WITH THIS. *TR |
