“I own a 2006 Suzuki Forenza and have had numerous problems with this car. Since purchasing new in 2006, I have had the gas gauge, gas tank, radio, center console, front door handles & catalytic converter replaced. The factory tires went bad within a year, and because it is an odd tire size cost over $400 to replace. Currently the check engine light is on stating there is a problem with the catalytic converter which was just replaced about 3 months ago. …”

“My car was new when I purchased it. When I drove at 60 MPH or more the car would start vibrating. I have took it back to the dealer several times. But the problem is still there. They have said low tire pressure. They have said the rim might be bent. They have the tires may need balancing. They have said the front end might need to be lined up. Please keep in mind this car was new and I have had this problem from day one.”

The vehicle had 76 miles at the time of purchase. The contact stated that the tire unraveled and tread and wires were scattered across the road. The wires were pulled underneath the vehicle by the tire, which caused the engine to fail. She was able to pull off the road and the vehicle was towed to the dealer. She stated that the dealer and manufacturer have been giving her the run around. …”
