Example complaints

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

“I am so upset that my 2006 Suzuki Forenza transmission range sensor has been going out. I have had this part replaced back in 2009 and it went out while I was driving and almost caused a car accident as I was driving due to the gears shifting as I was on the expressway and had to pull over on the shoulder. I went to the Suzuki dealership and advise of the problem and said that it not covered under the powertrain warranty. …”

“It was a hit and run. From the rear and hit a tree. My main concern is that my air bags did not deploy. Safety first. Now I feel the car is a defect. Please get back in touch with me on this matter.”

NHTSA complaint #10182984, filed 2007-02

“The contact stated on three separate occasions, the vehicle would not start in the morning without the accelerator pedal being pressed. The dealership was unable to determine the problem but believed it may have been a software problem that was aggravated by the climate updated 6/16/2006 - the dealer took the car back nd gave the consumer full credit towards another vehicle.”
