Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“This is the worst new car I have ever seen, very poor quality. The dealer has looked at the transmission problem 4 times, says car is being driven wrong. Banging noise happens in first and second gears, windshield seal is bad, vibrates and cracks in cold weather, both problems reported to Suzuki.”
