XL7 LX V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 25,000 miles

I bought the Suzuki in Washington state from a large dealership who ripped me off to keep it short. Turned out Suzuki quit making engine block heaters about 3 months prior to my purchase. I managed to get a circulating tank heater, an oil pan heater, and a battery pad heater installed just prior to shipping the car for my move to Fairbanks, AK. Now the engine has froze up. There is NO SUZUKI in Fairbanks, and I had called prior to buying the damn thing to check- they had said there was a Suzuki service center here. Turns out its a repair shop that honors Suzuki Warrantees once the work is done. Even though the damn car is under a full factory warrantee, I am screwed when it comes to getting towed and going a month without a car! Have been in contact with Suzuki in Anchorage and a district rep, but they have failed to return calls. Don't count on Suzuki if your not near a Dealership.
