Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“I have a 2001 Suzuki XL-7 the AC compressor started making a noise when you turned it on. And then one day we where driving down the road and I turned the air on and my vehicle died. We coasted off the road and tried to start it, but nothing. So, I turned the switch off to the air and the vehicle started back. I had to replace the compressor which was not cheap. And now it is starting to make the same noise I before. Which I can't afford another 900.00 to replace this one. And Suzuki refused to do anything. …”
