“Defects air conditioner condenser damage behind fan assembly. Failure of condenser in location consistent with other failures by other owners. Pull to right while driving even after alighnment, similar to other owner complaints. Vibration while braking and premature wear, similar problems with other owners. Items should be recalled and repaired.”

“The brakes on my 2000 Suzuki grand Vitara have been replaced 4 times in 4 years. They were replaced in june of 2003 3 times within 2 months because they squeak and make grinding noises. I have been told by my service people that they contacted Suzuki directly and were told to put on special no squeak brakes so they did---they still squeak and sometimes grind. I have had the service people check them several times and there is nothing they can do to fix the problem. When we replaced the first set of brakes--the brakes were worn really strange. …”

“The right front brake springs snapped while driving, causing brakes to lock while car was in motion, thank god it was not at highway speed! Two different dealers with no parts took two months undrivable for repair. Next failure was a major oil leak, dealer says can't tell where its coming from as oil is everywhere , caused metal shavings in oil and reportedly needs new engine. No warning lights activated though dealer stated that there was less than a quart of oil left in engine.”
