2006 Suzuki Reno Vehicle speed control Problems

“I bought my 2006 Suzuki RENO in 2008 with approx. 41000 miles on it. My car is currently approx. 90000 miles but the issue started happening around the 83000 mile mark. I was on the highway when all of a sudden, it felt like my car shifted into neutral while driving and went from 70mph to 30mph almost immediately. After that first instance, the car continually bangs into gear from park to reverse. It drives fine for a few minutes but then it continues to erratically shift into neutral while driving. …”

“On 04/21/15 another incident was when I was driving to the hospital and all of a sudden my car dropped to less than 20 MPH and wouldn't accelerate.I had to pull over without power steering to get my son to the hospital. On 5/04/2015 I was driving my car to drop my son off at daycare and when I started my car it revved up the engine on its own from 2-3 RPM's and then idled and I put the car in drive and drove about 2 miles and then while I was at a stop light I was stopped and my car jerked forward slightly 2 times and you could hear the change in the car then all of a sudden it died. …”

“For several weeks my car has been clunking into reverse and drive and getting stuck in 3rd gear while driving. I went to Suzuki and bought the transmission range sensor which is what is faulty.

Luckily there was only a curb that she hit but she could have hit a car or a person. …”

“The contact owns a 2006 Suzuki RENO. While driving approximately 10 MPH, there was an unexpected increase in acceleration. The brake pedal was engaged repeatedly however, the vehicle failed to stop until the gear lever was shifted into neutral. The contact was able to resume normally. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer where the throttle body was replaced. The failure recurred after the repair was performed. The vehicle had not been repaired for most recent failure. The manufacturer was notified of the acceleration failure. The approximate failure mileage was 56,000. …”

“The check engine came on, and I had a diagnostic done. It showed one o2 sensor was not good. It was replaced. After one week the light came on again, and another sensor needed to be replaced. About two weeks later, the light came on again, and the test showed that the catalytic converter needed to be replaced. This was replaced. Two months later the light came on again, and it shows that both the o2 sensor and catalytic converter need to be replaced. …”
