2004 Suzuki Forenza Electrical system Problems

“The car just dies on us in traffic for no apparent reason and then we have to let it set for about 20 minutes and it will start rigth back up. We have had it in at the dealers to be fixed on 2 different ocassions and they hook it up to their diagnostic tools and it shows no defects.they said they thought it was because of the cruise control they had installed aftermarket. So they removed that and told us it was fixed. The very next day it started dying on us again.”

“While driving 30 MPH, the vehicle stalled. The vehicle had been to the dealer three times for this problem. Once the dealer replaced a fuse, but that didn't fix the problem. The dealer found a ECM fuse at the ip fuse blocked open. (ECM, eng fuse block, TCM, ip fuse) the shifting transaxle harness was rerouted between the firewall and connector c206 secure harness.”

“Car has trouble starting and check engine light comes on intermittently. July 2007 took car in with 'hard start problem. They found resonator assembly needed replacing. That repair was done on august 3, 2007. Car ran for approx. 2 months and we took it back in october with the check engine light on and the same hard start problem. They replaced the starter october 18, 2007 and stated it was arcing to high. Took car back october 21, 2007 with the same problem. October 26, 2007 the ecu computer was replaced. Took car back to shop october 29, 2007 with the same hard start problem. …”

“Electrical malfuntions, dashboard meters were moving up and down erratically. I took the car to the dealership about 5 times, they said the problem was corrected but it continued to happen. The dealership finally corrected the problem (or so they believed) and that took about 2 weeks to finish. Now the doors are locking and unlocking by themselves. I'm thinking about getting rid of the car.”
