Example complaints

“The A/C compressor has failed at approx. 47,000 miles. I have checked with many other Suzuki owners and the dealership here locally. They all state this is common for Suzuki's. Due to the high replacement cost of the compressor I am currently without A/C with a 110 degree heat index. I will be purchasing the new compressor and having it installed soon.”
NHTSA complaint #10164125, filed 2006-08, 47,000 miles“A/c compressor seizing/ just over 100,000 miles and mechanic said this is defect and common but Suzuki is ignoring problem. Also this could cause serious accident if occurs while driving.”
