Aerio 4-cyl

I bought this vehicle on Nov 2, 2005. Two months later the car was out of alignment so I took it to the shop to get that rectified. Exactly 7 days later it was out of alignment again so I took it to the dealership I bought it from and after I explained the situation their response was that this is not covered by the manufacturers warranty. I paid over $50 to get the car aligned again. In June and just today (Aug 15, 06) I took it to sears for alignment again. This is the fourth time in 10 months I had to take this car back for alignment. The tires are wearing excessively. The front brakes vibrate at 40 mph and of course, I was told by the dealership that this problem is also not covered by the warranty. Even without even test driving the car. Amazing. To fix it, it will cost me another $160 because the brake pads alone, supposedly cost $120. Let me tell you this, I came back to Suzuki because I was the proud owner of a Chevy sprint rs 1985 made by Suzuki and I had it for 10 year with no problems whatsoever. Maybe that was too much luck but 4 alignments in 10 months is defenitly not the quality I was expecting from Suzuki. I will get rid of this car as soon as I can and guess what, I'm passing the word about the aereo's deficiencies to.
