From day one, my engine light has come on and I have been dealing with different issues ie, it's the gas cap, the man who sold me the car, (the dealer) took the car to the dealership to be repaired, so much, then he took off, and left Massachusetts after selling me a lemon. Etc. How many gas caps do I have to buy? now at year 2014, the engine and transmission has been replaced, the engine belt snapped, the transmission is acting up, (in July of 2010), and the sensor has gone completely wild, ie, comes on and goes off steadily, had that repaired, and when I drive the engine light still comes on and goes off, off, and on, and now the air bag light steadily does the same, after having it repaired twice. The website www.topix.com/forum/city/florence/al has hundreds of complaints on all of the Suzuki vehicles from 2005-2012. How many complaints do you have to have in order to do something about these Suzuki vehicles? I don't think it's fair to have to pay for these kind of repairs, still making car notes, on this car, and I have to have top notch insurance. I would like to know what someone is going to do about these vehicles. I am hoping it doesn't have to take someone to be killed in order for something to happen for a recall. The warranty was only for 90 days, and though I exercised it. I got the run around because the dealer, and the dealership didn't do the rightful repairs on this vehicle in the time allowed. The fault is on both.
