Example complaints

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

“I was on a major highway when I lost all gears on my car. I started to roll back. I am also going on my fourth set of tires on this car. The dealership seems to think this is normal.”

NHTSA complaint #10296296, filed 2009-12, 12 miles

“Excessive tire wear on 2006 Suzuki Grand Vitara. I have had to replace my tires on my vehicle four times in three years and all Suzuki will say is it is an alignment problem and a wear problem and they are not responsible for it. I have spent more money on tires in the last three years for this vehicle than I can afford. And my tires keep going bald within 12k miles or less and I have put three different types of tires on the vehicle. There are several blogs about this problem but Suzuki refuses to acknowledge that there is a problem with the vehicle and not the tires. …”
