“My 2007 Suzuki RENO only have around 56000 miles and it started to shake while putting it on reverse gear. Don't move sometime after putting it on drive and make loud noise as I try to accelerate, engine light is on since july 2nd and these issues started from that time. I took it to a local o'reilly to check engine light code and they said its a transmission related code.”
NHTSA complaint #10885507, filed 2016-07, 56,200 miles“Engine light comes on and goes off. Car has problems starting: sometimes it starts in park, sometimes it will only start in neutral, other times I have to go through all the gears and go back to neutral. Transmission range sensor seems to be problem from my online research.”
NHTSA complaint #10508864, filed 2013-04, 79,000 miles“The check engine light is on all the time. My vehicle has been acting like it does not want to go into gear. While I am driving it, it will shift out of gear into neutral. When I shift gears it will make a loud clunk noise and occasionally jerk the car. The closest Suzuki dealership near me (since mine closed) is about 2 to 3 hours away. Im sure my vehicle will not make it to the dealership.”

The check engine light will come on and the vehicle will not accelerate. If you shut the vehicle off and then restart, it will then accelerate but will not shift properly. I had the vehicle to ken pollock Suzuki dealership in pennsylvania when it was still covered under warranty and they charged me $100.00 dollars to run a diagnostic code scan. …”
