Open the full vehicle complaint log (all categories)TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 SUZUKI FORENZA. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY, THE HIGH BEAM HEADLIGHTS FAILED TO TURN ON WHEN PROMPTED. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. A DEALER AND THE MANUFACTURER WERE NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 75,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.
I HAD RECEIVED A SAFETY RECALL ON A FIRE HAZARD WITH THE LIGHTENING AFTER I KEPT SMELLING PLASTIC BURNING EVERY TIME IT RAINED...I THEN NOTICED IT WAS BECAUSE I HAD THE LIGHTS ON ALL THE TIME. I HAVE CALLED SUZUKI TO NO AVAIL TO HAVE A LOCAL PROCURED TO DO RECALL REPAIR DUE TO THE CLOSET APPROVED VENDOR BEING 2 HOURS AWAY IN TRAFFIC AND THE LENGTH OF REPAIR TAKING MOST OF THEIR DAY PLUS RETURN TRIP. WE WOULD HAVE TO SPEND NIGHT IN A HOTEL. MY MECHANIC EVEN CALLED THEM AND SAID THEY WOULD DO THE REPAIRS IN CHANTILLY, VA. AND SUZUKI REFUSED SAYING IT WOULD ONLY TAKE ME 20 MINUTES TO DRIVE TO WHEATON MD???????? I AM IN BRISTOW, VA. I ASKED THAT THEY HAVE THE VEHICLE TOWED AND FIXED AND BROUGHT BACK TO ME THEN AND THEY REFUSE EVERY SUGGESTION. THIS IS BY FAR A HUGE INCONVENIENCE AND WEAR AND TEAR ON MY VEHICLE. IT IS THEIR FIRE HAZARD, THEY SHOULD MAKE EVERY EFFORT TO PROVIDE FOR A LOCAL REPAIR TO THE FIRE HAZARD. *TR
HEADLAMP JUST STOPPED WORKING . I CHANGED THE RELAY THEN THE FUSE AND ALSO THE LIGHT ITSELF STILL NOT WORKING I KNOW THERE WAS A EALL ON THE MODEL OF THE YEAR BEFORE, I CAN ONLY ASSUME THAT THEY USED THOSE PARTS FOR MY CAR.. *TR
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 SUZUKI FORENZA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HEADLIGHTS WOULD NOT SHUT OFF DURING THE DAY OR NIGHT, CAUSING THE LIGHTS TO DISABLE. BOTH THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER DENIED ANY ASSISTANCE WITH REPAIRS OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 49,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 50,000.
I HAVE A 2007 SUZUKI FORENZA; IT WAS NEW WHEN I PURCHASED IT. HOWEVER, I JUST HAD A STRANGE INSTANCE LAST WEEK IN WHICH THE BRAKE LIGHTS WOULD NOT GO OUT AFTER I TURNED OFF THE CAR. I HAD TO DRAIN THE BATTERY JUST TO FIND OUT WHETHER OR NOT THEY WOULD GO OUT, WHICH THEY DID NOT. I ENDED UP TAKING IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY HAD TO REPLACE THE BATTERY AND BRAKE SWITCH. THIS COST ABOUT $275 ALTOGETHER, HOWEVER I AM NOT SURE IF THIS HAS HAPPENED WITH OTHER FORENZAS YET AND WANTED TO REPORT IT, AS BRAKELIGHTS BEING OUT SOMEONE COULD RUN INTO YOU IF THIS HAPPENS. I HAVE NOT HAD IT HAPPEN AGAIN BUT IF IT DOES I WILL REPORT IT. *TR
