ACCELERATING UP A HILL, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON SOLID (NOT FLASHING) AND THE "D" ON THE DASH DISPLAY WHERE "DRIVE" IS SIGNALED WAS FLASHING AN INCOMPREHENSIBLE ICON THAT WAS NOT FOUND IN THE OWNER'S MANUAL (LOOKED LIKE A SQUARE WITH TWO SLASHES THROUGH IT.) THE NEW TRANSMISSION SIGNAL WOULD FLASH FOR 10-15 MILES OR SO STARTING DURING ACCELERATION. THE PART THAT THE DEALERSHIP REPLACED WAS A "TRANSMISSION RANGE SWITCH." *TR
I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN MY CAR STALES.. THANK GOD I WAS CLOSE TO THE RIGHT SHOULDER. I JUST GOT THE CAR BACK FROM THE MECHANIC AND SPENT 500 TO FIX THE TIMING BELT, NEW BATTERY, VALVE, OIL CHANGE.. I TOOK IT TO THEM FOR THIS PROBLEM IN THE FIRST PLACE AND THEY COULDN'T FIGURE IT OUT. I CALLED SUZUKI CORPORATE AND THEY SAID THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO. I EXPLAINED THE HUGE LIABILITY IF MY CALL JUST STOPS IN THE FREEWAY.. THEY OFFER TO HOLD MY HAND THROUGH THE PROCESS. SUZUKI NEEDS A RUDE AWAKENING. RECALL ON THE TRANSMISSION RANGE SENSOR.. I AM NOT SURE IF THAT IS THE PROBLEM BECAUSE NO BODY AT THE SHOP COULD FIGURE IT OUT. BUT I SEE ON THESE FORUMS I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE.. *TR
I HAVE A 2006 SUZUKI FORENZA. OFTEN WHEN I PUT THE CAR INTO GEAR, IT "CLUNKS." THEN WHEN I AM DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD, NO MATTER WHAT THE SPEED, THE CAR SHIFTS ITSELF INTO NEUTRAL. I CAN DRIVE IF I PUT IT INTO 1ST, 2ND, OR 3RD GEAR AFTER IT SHIFTS INTO NEUTRAL. AFTER SEVERAL MINUTES OR LATER IN THE DAY I CAN GET THE CAR INTO DRIVE AGAIN, BUT THE PROBLEM REPEATS ITSELF DAILY. *TR
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 SUZUKI FORENZA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE ACCELERATING FROM A FOUR WAY STOP, THE VEHICLE DOWN SHIFTED ON ITS OWN AND THEN SHIFTED INTO NEUTRAL. THE CONTACT HAD TO APPLY THE EMERGENCY BRAKE TO STOP THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR A DIAGNOSIS AND THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE TRANSMISSION RING SENSOR WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. THIS WAS THE SECOND TIME THE SENSOR WAS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE 98,000.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 SUZUKI FORENZA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE LOW BEAM HEAD LIGHTS MALFUNCTIONED. AS A RESULT, HE WAS UNABLE TO SWITCH OFF THE HIGH BEAMS. THE CONTACT ALSO MENTIONED THAT THE AIR BAG WARNING LAMP ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE WHO DID NOT OFFER ANY ASSISTANCE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 70,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 77,000. UPDATED 8/6/12 *CN THE CONSUMER STATED THE LOW BEAM LIGHTS DID NOT WORK. ONLY, THE HIGH BEAMS WORKED. UPDATED 08/14/12
TODAY MY WIFE NOTICED THAT THE BATTERY INDICATOR AND BRAKE INDICATOR LIGHTS ILLUMINATED ON THE CLUSTER PANEL THIS MORNING WHILE DRIVING TO WORK, AS WELL AS THE SPEEDO NEEDLE BOUNCING AROUND WHEN COMING TO A STOP. I PICKED UP THE CAR AND DROVE IT TO AUTO ZONE TO SEE IF THERE WERE NOT ANY OBD II CODES STORED. I TOO NOTICED THE BRAKE/BATTERY LIGHTS, AS WELL AS THE SPEEDO NEEDLE WOULD JUMP WHEN I USED MY TURN SIGNALS. I GOT IT TO AUTO ZONE AND THERE WERE NO CODES STORED. IT WAS AFTER THE CODE SCANNER WAS HOOKED UP MY REAL PROBLEMS BEGAN. WHEN PUTTING THE CAR IN GEAR (EITHER D OR R) IT WOULD SLAM INTO GEAR, THE SPEEDO DIDN'T WORK AND TO TOP IT ALL OFF, THE CAR HAD NO ACCELERATION. I HAD THIS ISSUE BEFORE, AND IT TURNED OUT IT WAS THE TRANSMISSION RANGE SELECTOR. WELL, THAT WAS REPLACED NO LESS THAN 10K MILES AGO. PLEASE, SOMEONE PLACE THIS CAR ON THE LEMON LIST SO I CAN RECOUP MY LOSSES. WHEN THERE IS NEXT TO NO ACCELERATION, IT CAN CAUSE AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE THE CAR CAN NOT MOVE FAST ENOUGH TO AVOID GETTING CLIPPED (OR WORSE). *TR
A MALFUNCTION OCCURS WHEN I ATTEMPT TO SHIFT GEARS FROM PARK TO ANY OTHER. 1. IT MAKES A LOUD, DEEP SOUND, SIMILAR TO "THUNK-THUNK" AND IF I DON'T HAVE MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE HARD ENOUGH, THE CAR LURCHES. 2. THE DASHBOARD SIGNAL FOR PDRN ETC RANDOMLY CHANGES TO A WEIRD SYMBOL THAT IS NOT ANY LETTER IN THE AMERICAN ALPHABET. 3. IT MAKES A REVVING SOUND WHICH SHOULD INDICATE A HIGHER VELOCITY WHEN IN FACT IT IS AT A LOWER VELOCITY. 4. IT WILL NOT ACCELERATE PROPERLY. WHEN ENTERING A HIGH FREQUENCY ROAD OR HIGHWAY, I HAVE TO FLOOR THE GAS PEDAL TO GO NORMAL SPEED THEN MAINTAIN IT. 5. IT SHIFTS OUT OF DRIVE INTO NEUTRAL WHILE I AM DRIVING AND INDEPENDENTLY OF MY ACTIVITY, THANKFULLY APPROXIMATELY ONLY ABOUT ONCE EVERY MONTH. 6. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ALWAYS ON. 7. THE MECHANIC SAID IT WAS RELATED TO THE TRANSMISSION BUT WAS CALLED A RANGE SOMETHING OR OTHER. 8. I NOTICE THESE PROBLEMS MORE IN STOP-AND-GO CITY TRAFFIC THAN ON LONG UNINTERRUPTED DISTANCES. 9. I CONSIDER THESE RANDOM CAR BEHAVIOUR PROBLEMS UNSTABLE AND UNSAFE. 10. TO ANY DRIVER NEW TO HANDLING/DRIVING MY CAR, I WOULD HAVE TO EXPLAIN ITS QUIRKS FOR THEM TO DRIVE AND NOT HAVE A TRAGIC VEHICULAR ACCIDENT INVOLVING THE IMPROPER RESPONSE OF MY CAR TO NORMAL USE. 11. THE WARRANTY RAN OUT LONG AGO. IT WAS ONLY FOR THREE YEARS. THE PROBLEMS STARTED OCCURRING AFTER THE WARRANTY EXPIRED, OF COURSE. 12. IT WILL COST ME ABOUT $200 TO GET THE RANGE WHATCHAMACALLIT FIXED, $200 OF WHICH I BELIEVE SUZUKI SHOULD PAY. UNRELATED PROB
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 SUZUKI FORENZA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AFTER STOPPING, THE VEHICLE WOULD HESITATE AND HINDER THE CONTACT FROM SHIFTING INTO ANY GEAR. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHO INSPECTED THE VEHICLE AND ADVISED THAT THE TRANSMISSION RANGE SENSOR FAILED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED WHO STATED THERE WERE NO RECALLS FOR THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED UNDER WARRANTY. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 62,000.
I WAS DRIVING HOME AND THE CAR SUDDENLY WENT INTO NEUTRAL GEAR LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER WITHOUT BEING HIT IN THE BACK, THIS HAD NOW HAPPENED 3 TIMES SINCE THE FIRST INCIDENT. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE MY CAR NOW. ALSO WHEN IT SHIFTS INTO NEUTRAL GEAR, ON THE DASH WHERE IT SHOWS THE GEARS THE D SIGN IS ALL SCRAMBLED. *TR
ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS THE TRANSMISSION WOULD SLIP GEARS, THE VEHICLE JUMPS AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT GOES ON. AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC TOLD ME IT WAS THE TRANSMISSION RANGE SENSOR THAT WAS DEFECTIVE AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THIS IS A SERIOUSLY DANGEROUS ISSUE BECAUSE IT HAPPENS MID DRIVE. APPARENTLY ITS MY TRANSMISSION RANGE SENSOR AND IT HAS HAPPENED TO A LOT OF PEOPLE. I HAVE DONE RESEARCH ON THIS ISSUE WITH THIS PARTICULAR VEHICLE AND HAVE FOUND THAT THIS ISSUE IS VERY WIDE SPREAD. I FEEL THAT NO MATTER HOW WELL THE MAINTENANCE ON THIS VEHICLE IS KEPT UP, THIS ISSUE IS DESTINED TO BECOME A PROBLEM AND A SAFETY ISSUE. BECAUSE THIS SENSOR GLITCH CAUSES THE VEHICLE TO SUDDENLY SWITCH GEARS AND SLOWDOWN WITHOUT WARNING OR BRAKE LIGHTS, THERE IS A HIGH POSSIBILITY FOR ACCIDENTS. I BELIEVE THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL FOR THIS TO BE FIXED. SUZUKI MOTOR CORP IS GROSSLY NEGLIGENT FOR NAOT MAKING A VOLUNTARY RECALL ON THIS INHERENTLY DEFECTIVE PART. IT IS THE DUTY AND RESPONSIBILITY OF NTSB TO COMPELL THE MANUFACTURER TO ISSUE A RECALL ON THESE 2006 FORENZA VEHICLES. *TR
TRANSMISSION RANGE SENSOR FAILURE. *TR
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 SUZUKI FORENZA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE STOPPED AT A STOP LIGHT, THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. THE FAILURE OCCURRED AT DIFFERENT SPEEDS INTERMITTENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR A DIAGNOSTIC TEST. THE MECHANIC STATED THAT THE TRANSMISSION RANGE SENSOR WOULD HAVE TO BE REPLACED. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE SAME PART WAS REPLACED TWO YEARS PRIOR TO OWNING THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 25,000.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 SUZUKI FORENZA. THE CONTACT STARTED THE IGNITION AND THERE WAS AN EXTREMELY HARD SHIFT INTO REVERSE. IN ADDITION, THE TRANSMISSION WOULD SLIP GEARS. THE FAILURES RECURRED WHENEVER THE VEHICLE WAS IN OPERATION. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED AND THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE DEFECT. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 80,000.
TRANSMISSION RANGE SENSOR IS GOING OUT. *TT
MY 06 FORENZA WOULD NOT SHIFT INTO DRIVE AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WOULD COME ON THEN IT WOULD GET BETTER AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WOULD TURN OFF. THEN I STARTED GETTING THE PERIODIC CLUNK AND SCRAMBLED DISPLAY, USUALLY WHILE IN A PARKING LOT OR WHEN JUST STARTING A TRIP AND DRIVING SLOW. I FINALLY TOOK IT TO ADVANCE AUTO AND THEY TOLD ME IT WAS THE TRANSMISSION SENSOR. THEY SENT ME TO THE DEALER WHO MADE ME TAKE THE CAR BACK HOME BECAUSE THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT HAD TURNED BACK OFF AND THEY COULDN'T READ THE CODES. IT'S STILL NOT FIXED BECAUSE WHEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON IT NEVER AT THE SHOP. I HAVE RESEARCHED ONLINE AND FIND THAT A LOT OF CONSUMERS ARE HAVING THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM WITH THIS CAR. I THINK SUZUKI SHOULD DO A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM BECAUSE IT'S NOT A RANDOM PROBLEM BUT SEEMS TO BE A STANDARD PROBLEM. *KB
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 SUZUKI FORENZA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT HER CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WOULD ILLUMINATE ON AN INTERMITTENT BASIS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHO ADVISED HER THAT THEY WERE UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 71,000. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE.
BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT BEING ON/OF FOR AS LONG AS I HAVE HAD THE CAR THE GEARS STARTED SLIPPING OR STAYING 3RD, 2ND OR R ALL THE TIME. TOOK IT IN TO TRY AND HAVE IT LOOKED AT OR CHECK THE TRANSMISSION FOR FLUIDS SINCE IT HAS A SEALED TRANSMISSION. FIRST THING THAT CAME UP WAS - I HAD NO WARRANTY, AND PRICES FOR THEM TO CHECK TO SEE WHY THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON BEFORE THEY CAN DO ANYTHING. NOW THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT STAYS ON AS WELL AS THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. AND THE KEY WILL NOT COME PUT OF THE IGNITION. VERY UNSAFE. WHAT CAN A BROKE UNEMPLOYED PERSON DO?. *TR

I PURCHASED A USED 2006 SUZUKI FORENZA IN CALIFORNIA. BIGGEST MISTAKE OF MY LIFE. I HAVE HAD NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS SINCE I BROUGHT THE VEHICLE. TWO WEEKS AFTER MY PURCHASE THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I WAS VISITING FAMILY IN LAS VEGAS WHO HELPED ME FIND A NEAR BY DEALER. AFTER THE DIAGNOSTIC THEY ADVISED ME THE VALVE COVER WAS SEALED IMPROPERLY. NOW I JUST GOT THE CAR 2WKS PRIOR SO I CALLED THE USED DEALER I BROUGHT HE CAR FROM AND LET THEM KNOW WHAT WAS GOING ON. NOT TO MENTION THE PASSENGER DOOR HANDLE BROKE OFF. I SEE I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE WITH DOOR HANDLE COMPLAINTS. THE DEALER IN LAS VEGAS FIXED THE LEAKING VALVE COVER AND REPLACED ONE SPARK PLUG AS OIL LEAKED INTO IT. THIS WAS FIXED UNDER THE WARRANTY. A MONTH LATER THE VEHICLE STARTED TO STALL AND THEN ACCELERATE BY ITSELF. THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME BACK ON SO I TOOK IT TO A SUZUKI DEALER IN VAN NUYS, CA. THE SERVICE MANAGER ADVISED ME AFTER THE DIAGNOSTIC IT WAS THE BATTERY. I HAD THE BATTERY REPLACED AND PAID A DIAGNOSTIC FEE A TOTAL OF $275.00. A FEW MONTHS AFTER THAT THE ENGINE LIGHT WAS BACK ON. WHILE ON MY WAY TO WORK THE CAR STOPPED ACCELERATING ALMOST CAUSING A VEHICLE TO HIT ME. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE SAME DEALER IN VAN NUYS WHO ADVISED ME THE THROTTLE WAS THE ISSUE. THEY REPLACED THE THROTTLE AND THE SAME ISSUE IS HAPPENING. THEY NOW CLAIM IT'S THE MAIN ENGINE WIRING HARNESS. I CALLED AMERICAN SUZUKI TO SEE IF THE "ENGINE WIRING HARNESS" IS COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. THE POWER TRAIN DOES NOT COVER THE WIRING HARNESS. TH
I HAVE 44,000 MILES ON MY 2006 SUZUKI FORENZA - ONLY 5 YEARS OLD AND THE STRUTS ARE GONE! THE FRONT END OF MY CAR BOUNCES LIKE ITS ON A TRAMPOLINE! THIS SHOULD NOT BE HAPPENING AT 5 YEARS OLD. SUZUKI NEEDS TO MAKE GOOD ON THEIR BAD STRUTS ON THIS CAR. I HAVE SEEN LOTS OF PEOPLE COMPLAINING .. ONE OF THEM AT 21,000 MILES.. AND THIS HASN'T BEEN RECALLED? WHAT GIVES? ALSO, I CAN'T LOCK MY CAR FROM THE OUTSIDE ANYMORE. THE AIRBAG LIGHT IS ALWAYS ON SAYING ITS NOT WORKING. THIS CAR HAS LOTS OF PROBLEMS AND I JUST BOUGHT IT A YEAR AGO AND READY TO GET RID OF IT AND BUY SOMETHING ELSE. DEFINITELY NOT A SUZUKI EVER AGAIN. *TR

THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 68,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 71,000.
I HAVE HAD SO MANY PROBLEMS WITH THIS CAR!! IT STARTED OUT AS I WAS SHIFT INTO OR PAST REVERSE. NOW IT SHIFTS ON IT'S OWN WHILE DRIVING, WHILE PULLING INTO TRAFFIC, WHILE AT STOPLIGHTS/STOP SIGNS. YOU WILL BE DRIVING AND IT WILL JERK AND PUT ITSELF INTO PARK BUT STILL GO. IT'S LIKE DRIVING A STICK SHIFT WITHOUT LETTING OFF THE CLUTCH. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS VEHICLE TO DRIVE. YOU DON'T KNOW WHEN IT'S GOING TO ACT UP. I HAVE MY DAUGHTER IN THE CAR AND WAIT UNTIL IT'S ABSOLUTELY CLEAR TO PULL OUT DUE TO THIS. TONIGHT (10/13/11) I WAS DRIVING, HIT A BUMP IN THE ROAD THAT I'VE DRIVEN OVER A MILLION TIMES AND SIMULTANEOUSLY, MY BRAKE LIGHT AND MY BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON. I DROVE TO MY DESTINATION WITH MY LIGHTS DIMMING SLOWLY AND PULLED INTO THE SPOT AND THE CAR DIED. I SPOKE TO THE LOCAL SUZUKI DEALERSHIP AND ASKED THE SERVICE TECH IS HE GETS ALOT OF ISSUES WITH THIS SENSOR AND HE SAYS "THE NUMBERS ARE HIGHER THAN THEY SHOULD BE FOR THIS CAR. " *TR
YES MY CARS GEARS WHEN I DRIVE WOULD GO IN DIFFERENT GEARS AND I ALMOST GOT HIT. I USE THIS CAR FOR TAKING MY KIDS TO SCHOOL AND I LOVE MY KIDS VERY MUCH. I CONTACTED THE DEALER SHIP AND THEY ACTED LIKE THEY DID NOT CARE ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AND I TOLD THEM THAT ALOT OF PEOPLE HAVE COMPLAINED.THESE CARS ARE DANGEROUS AND A SAFETY HAZARD AND SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO BE SOLD OR BE ALLOWED ON THE ROAD. AND IF SOMETHING HAPPENS TO PEOPLE AND THEIR FAMILIES THEN SUZUKI AND ANYONE ELSE WHO ALLOWS SUZUKI TO SELL THESE CARS SHOULD BE HELD RESPONSIBLE IF SOMETHING HAPPENS TO SOMEONE. I WILL RETALIATE IF SOMETHING HAPPENS TO MY CHILDREN. I AND ALL THE OTHER PEOPLE WOULD APPRECIATE IF YOU EITHER STOP THEM FROM SELLING THESE CARS OR HAVE THEM RECALLED. OR MAKE THEM GO TO THE JUNK YARD. THANK YOU *TR

I WAS DRIVING MY SUZUKI FORENZA LAST FRIDAY WHEN IT WENT FROM "DRIVE" TO BASICALLY NEUTRAL. I WAS DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE AND WAS ALMOST HIT FROM BEHIND BECAUSE MY CAR STALLED. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES SINCE AND EACH TIME I'VE BEEN LUCKY ENOUGH NOT TO BE HIT. THIS IS A SERIOUSLY DANGEROUS ISSUE BECAUSE IT HAPPENS MID DRIVE. APPARENTLY IT'S MY TRANSMISSION RANGE SENSOR AND IT HAS HAPPENED TO A LOT OF PEOPLE. I CANNOT DRIVE MY CAR WITHOUT GOING VERY SLOWLY AND BEING FEARFUL. IT WILL STILL DO IT EACH TIME I ACCELERATE SO I HAVE TO BE MINDFUL TO DRIVE ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE ROAD SO I CAN EASILY PULL INTO A SIDE ROAD OR DRIVEWAY. I'M HOPING TO GET IT FIXED ASAP HOWEVER IT'S NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. *TR

I AM NOT HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM WITH MY CAR AND AS I WAS GOING THROUGH A LIGHT WITH BUSY TRAFFIC THE SAME ISSUE AND ALMOST CAUSED A CAR TO REAR ENDED ME AND DUE TO THE GEAR CHANGING AND CAUSING MY CAR TO GO SLOW. SUZUKI SHOULD HAVE LONGER WARRANTIES ON THESE PARTS LONGER THAT A YEAR DUE TO THE PART IS NOT LASTING. THEN THE ENGINE LIGHT WILL COME ON AND THEN THE DASHBOARD GEARS WILL SCRAMBLE. THE NEXT DAY THE ENGINE LIGHT WENT OFF AND TOOK IT TO SUZUKI AND SAID CAN NOT HELP CAUSE LIGHT WENT OFF. I DROVE THE CAR FOR A FEW DAYS AND THE LIGHT CAME BACK ON AND I WAS TURNING INTO THE STREET TO THE TURNING LANE AND MY CAR STARTED TO STALL AND ONCOMING TRAFFIC WAS COMING.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 SUZUKI FORENZA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 35, THE VEHICLE WOULD SLIP OUT OF GEAR AND STALL. THE VEHICLE WOULD BE PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND RESTARTED. APPROXIMATELY ONE YEAR AGO, THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER WHERE AN UNKNOWN SENSOR WAS REPLACED.

I OWN A 2006 SUZUKI FORENZA. A LITTLE OVER MONTH AGO, ME AND MY FAMILY WERE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, AND THE CAR STARTED JERKING AND SLOWING DOWN VERY SUDDENLY. AFTER SWITCHING INTO 3RD GEAR AND THEN BACK TO DRIVE, THE CAR FINALLY STARTED PICKING UP SPEED AND DRIVING CORRECTLY. A FEW DAYS AFTER THAT, I DROVE MY DAUGHTER TO SCHOOL AND WHEN I GOT BACK IN THE CAR TO GO HOME, THE CAR WOULD NOT DRIVE OVER 10MPH. IT KEPT JERKING VERY HARD. I TOOK IT TO GET DIAGNOSTICS DONE AND FOUND THAT IT IS THE TRANSMISSION RANGE SENSOR. I HAVE DONE RESEARCH ON THIS ISSUE WITH THIS PARTICULAR VEHICLE AND HAVE FOUND THAT THIS ISSUE IS VERY WIDE SPREAD. I FEEL THAT NO MATTER HOW WELL THE MAINTENANCE ON THIS VEHICLE IS KEPT UP, THIS ISSUE IS DESTINED TO BECOME A PROBLEM AND A SAFETY ISSUE. BECAUSE THIS SENSOR GLITCH CAUSES THE VEHICLE TO SUDDENLY SWITCH GEARS AND SLOWDOWN WITHOUT WARNING OR BRAKE LIGHTS, THERE IS A HIGH POSSIBILITY FOR ACCIDENTS. I BELIEVE THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL FOR THIS TO BE FIXED. I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO DRIVE MY CAR FOR OVER A MONTH BECAUSE MY FAMILY HAS ONLY ONE INCOME AT THIS TIME FROM MY HUSBANDS JOB AND I CANNOT AFFORD TO HAVE IT FIXED. I CALLED THE MANUFACTURER AND GOT NO ASSISTANCE. I CONTACTED THE DEALER ASKING ABOUT A GOODWILL ASSISTANCE REPAIR AND I HAVE GOTTEN NO RESPONSE. *TR
I HAVE AN 06 SUZUKI FORENZA WITH ABOUT 86,00 MILKES. MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON WHILE DRIVING HOME FROM WORK. SEEMS TO BE THE TRANSMISSION RANGE SENSOR. THEY RESET SOMETHING; LIGHT WENT OUT. NEXT MORNING ON WAY TO WORK, IT CAME ON AGAIN. NOW HAVE CALL IN TO MECHANIC TO SEE HOW TO GET THIS FIXED. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE IT SINCE I DON'T KNOW IF DRIVING WOULD CAUSE FURTHER DAMAGE.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 SUZUKI FORENZA. THE CONTACT WAS DRIVING 65 MPH WHEN THE DRIVE INDICATOR FLASHED ON THE DASHBOARD AS THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A LOCAL MECHANIC FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING AND WAS ADVISED BY THE MECHANIC THAT THE TRANSMISSION RANGE SENSOR WAS FAULTY. THE CONTACT NOTICED NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS REGARDING THE TRANSMISSION RANGE SENSOR FOR HIS MAKE AND MODEL VIA THE INTERNET. THE CONTACT WAS CONCERNED THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD STALL AND CAUSE A CRASH. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 75,000.
RANGE SENSOR ON MY POWER TRAIN SEEMS LIKE IT'S GOING OUT. I HAVE READ DOZENS AND DOZENS OF COMPLAINS FOR THIS VERY PART ON THIS VERY SAME MODEL AND YEAR CAR AND IT'S NOT COVERED UNDER THE WARRANTY AND I REALLY DON'T HAVE $200-300 TO GET IT FIXED RIGHT NOW. I HAVE A 2 YEAR OLD WHO RIDES IN MY CAR AND THIS ISN'T SAFE. WHAT IT DOES IS WHEN YOU GET UP TO ABOUT 40 MILES PER HOUR IT WILL JERK AND DECELERATE DOWN TO ABOUT 20 MILES PER HOUR, THIS COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. FROM WHAT I'VE READ THIS PART REALLY DOES NEED TO BE RECALLED BECAUSE LOTS OF PEOPLE HAVE HAD THIS SAME ISSUE WITH THIS CAR AND THIS PART AND THE WARRANT DOESN'T TAKE CARE OF IT. I BOUGHT A SUZUKI BECAUSE I THOUGHT IT WAS A GOOD CAR WITH A GREAT WARRANTY AND I'M FINDING OUT THAT MIGHT NOT HAVE BEEN THE CASE. *TR
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 SUZUKI FORENZA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENTAL PANEL. THE VEHICLE WAS THEN INSPECTED BY THE DEALER AND THEY ADVISED THAT THERE WAS A PLUG UNDER THE DRIVER SIDE SEAT THAT WOULD NOT STAY CONNECTED. THE DEALER REPAIRED THE VEHICLE BY PLACING DUCT TAPE ON THE PLUG. AFTER A FEW DAYS OF THE TAPE WEARING OFF, THE AIR BAG LIGHT ILLUMINATED AGAIN. IN ADDITION, THE GEAR SHIFT INDICATOR ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL WOULD SHOW A BLACK LINE THROUGH THE D FOR DRIVE AND THE VEHICLE WOULD EXHIBIT A CLINKING NOISE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INSPECTED BY A DEALER NOR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 150. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 SUZUKI FORENZA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN DRIVING AT ANY SPEED, THE VEHICLE WOULD LUNGE FORWARD AND SKIP GEARS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD ACT AS IF IT WERE IN LIMP MODE AND THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT WAS ALSO ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT REPAIRED THE VEHICLE BY REPLACING THE TRANSMISSION RANGE SENSOR. THE DEALER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE, BUT THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 37,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 39,300. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.
MY 2006 SUZUKI FORENZA LOOSES ACCELERATION WHILE DRIVING; SIMPLY PUT THE GAS PEDAL DOESN'T WORK. WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT SPEED, AND WITH OUT CRUISE CONTROL, I WILL LET UP ON THE ACCELERATOR AND WHEN THE ACCELERATOR IS PRESSED IN AGAIN I HAVE NO ACCELERATION. THIS TYPE OF INCIDENT HAS OCCURRED NUMEROUS TIMES ON THE HIGHWAY; EVEN WHILE ATTEMPTING TO PASS A VEHICLE. THIS IS VERY CONCERNING BECAUSE I FEEL I MIGHT BE RUN OVER BY A VEHICLE BEHIND ME IF I LOOSE ACCELERATION. THE VEHICLE HAS A TENDENCY TO LUNGE FORWARD WHILE STOPPED DUE TO THIS MALFUNCTION OF THE THROTTLE BODY. THE CAR IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE ANYWHERE WITH THE POSSIBILITY THAT IT WILL NOT ACCELERATE PROPERLY OR LUNGE FORWARD INTO A CAR AT A STOP LIGHT. I HAVE CONTACTED SUZUKI AND THEY TELL ME IT IS NOT A MALFUNCTION AND WILL NOT HONOR THEIR 7YR; 70,000 MILE WARRANTY. I HAVE HAD SEVERAL TRIPS TO THE MECHANIC TO TRY TO FIX THE PROBLEM; AND WE HAVE WORKED OUR WAY THROUGH EVERYTHING DOWN TO THE VERY EXPENSIVE THROTTLE BODY. I WENT TO A DEALERSHIP AND ALL THEY DID WAS CLEAR THE CODES; 10 MILES DOWN THE ROAD THE CAR STARTED DOING THE SAME THING ALL OVER AGAIN. I WOULD LIKE THIS FIXED BEFORE THERE IS A SEVER ACCIDENT BECAUSE I'M DRIVING A DEFECTIVE VEHICLE. *TR
I HAVE EXPERIENCED TWO FRONT END COLLISIONS TO A SUZUKI FORENZA 2006. DURING BOTH ACCIDENTS THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY AS DESIGNED TO. THE LAST ACCIDENT ON 5/5/11 ENDED IN A TOTAL LOSS OF THE CAR DUE TO A FRONT END COLLISION. THE IMPACT WAS SUCH THAT THE LEFT FRONT BUMPER AND FENDER WERE DAMAGED. THIS ACCIDENT ALSO BUCKLED THE HOOD OF THE VEHICLE AND RAISED IT AT LEAST 1.5 HIGHER THAN NORMAL. THIS WILL GIVE YOU SOME IDEA OF THE FORCE OF THE ACCIDENT. SUZUKI WAS NOT INTERESTED IN CHECKING THE VEHICLE OUT UNTIL JUST RECENTLY. I FEEL THAT IF THE AIR BAGS DID DEPLOY, ESPECIALLY ON THIS LAST ACCIDENT I WOULD NOT HAVE SUSTAINED ANY INJURY WHAT SO EVER. *TR
I HAVE A 2006 SUZUKI FORENZA, AND IT ALSO IS HAVING ALL THE PROBLEMS EVERYONE ELSE IS TALKING ABOUT. MY CAR HAS ABOUT 47,000 MILES. IT STARTED WITH THE ENGINE LIGHT COMING ON AND OFF AT RANDOM TIMES AND THEN MY CAR WOULD BARELY GO WHEN I PRESSED THE GAS PEDAL. I STILL CAN PUSH THE PEDAL ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR AND IT WILL GO VERY SLOW AND MY CAR ENGINE SOUNDS SOOOO LOUD. RECENTLY I PUT MY CAR IN REVERSE AND THEN IT JERKED BACK AND WHEN I PUT IT K INTO DRIVE IT JERKED FORWARD AND DIDN'T WANT TO GO EVEN THO IT WAS IN DRIVE, THEN ON THE ODOMETER IT HAD A BOX WITH A LINE GOING THROUGH IT AND A LINE GOING ACROSS AS IT WAS FLASHING. SOMETIME I WILL NOT HAVE PROBLEMS WITH MY CAR AND THEN I WILL DO IT FOR DAYS. HOW DO YOU FIX THIS? THIS CAR IS DANGEROUS AND SHOULD BE RECALLED!! I HAVE 2 TODDLERS THAT DRIVE IN MY CAR WITH ME EVERYDAY AND THIS IS VERY UNACCEPTABLE!! WILL BE GETTING A NEW CAR AS SOON AS I CAN. *TR
NHTSA publishes every complaint as the owner wrote it and investigates only a fraction. Spelling, capitalisation and judgement are the filer’s own. What carries weight is repetition: the same component failing the same way across many filings, and whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
