Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“I have had three incidents of unexplained acceleration and revving of the engine in my Suzuki. Each time I have had to leave the flow of traffic and turn the vehicle off to stop the acceleration. This happened twice while driving at highway speed. Braking does not cause the car to downshift. I think a throttle or acceleration is sticking similar to the recalled toyota cars. This has happened with passengers in the car who can support what happened. Following two incidents, the dealership replaced the motor mounts to fix the problem. It cost $500. …”
