THE LEFT SIDE ONLY OF THE REAR TIRE WORE THROUGH TO THE BELTS AFTER 7500 MILES. THE DEALERSHIP RIDE 1 IN SPRINGFIELD OHIO TOLD ME IT WAS FROM OVER INFLATION AT 38PSI. AT 15000, WITH THE SAME EXACT ISSUE, RIDE 1 STATED IT WAS UNDER INFLATION AT 35PSI. AGAIN, AT 20200 MILES MY REAR TIRE IS WORN THROUGH LEFT SIDE ONLY AND SUZUKI AND RIDE 1 REFUSE TO MAKE ACTUAL REPAIRS. I HAVE THE REPAIR TICKETS FROM BOTH PREVIOUS TIMES. THIS CANNOT BE A "WEAR ISSUE" AS STATED BY BOTH RIDE 1 AND SUZUKI. I OWNED A 2006 MODEL OF THE EXACT SAME MODEL AND NEVER HAD IRREGULAR WEAR ISSUES.

Reading this record

No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.

Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.

Most recent recall on file: none. Source: NHTSA Office of Defects Investigation.
