2007 Suzuki XL7 Steering Problems

“I went to turn left this evening departing off of a sharp turn and the car without warning became almost impossible to steer. Meanwhile, another automobile came flying around the turn and barely missed hitting me. It took much arm muscle but I was able to get the car home. This is our only family car and I am not comfortable any longer driving it. Prior to this incident the readings on the dash began acting up and the remote start quit.”

“This was the 2nd time this problem occurred. This time I was coming back from a drive on the hwy and my wheel started to shake. It was a drastic change of a smooth ride to a weird shaking. I exited the hwy and went the street way. Still it did not improve got worst could barely accelerate . The brakes were so sensitive I barely pushed them down and it stopped. By the time I got home the and parked the car in the garage it stated to run hot. …”

“Check engine light came on in our car n was told it was timing chain tensioner n come to find out it just the cam shaft position sensor n our power steering is messed which u have to use all the muscles u can to turn it”

“I am the original owner of a 2007 Suzuki xl7. I bought my vehicle from talisman Suzuki in houston back in september of 2007. Five months after I purchased the vehicle I began to have issues with the tire monitoring systems. A year later at 50,000 miles I noticed that my vehicle was hard to steer, so I took it into the dealer. I have a 100, 000 mile bumper to bumper warranty but I was told that the power steering pump was leaking and that is what was causing the hard steering. …”

“My 2007 Suzuki xl7 (48,000 miles) has become very difficult to steer, which has also become a safety issue. Research has told me that, what seems to be a very similar, if not exact, problem exists with the 2006 model. Suzuki apparently was not willing to fix the 2006 problem free of charge initially but in some cases, after multiple complaints, did. This steering problem should not be an issue on a car with 48,000. I will be calling Suzuki and hopefully get some results before something serious occurs.”
