I have 44,000 miles on my 2006 Suzuki Forenza - only 5 years old and the struts are gone! the front end of my car bounces like its on a trampoline! this should not be happening at 5 years old. Suzuki needs to make good on their bad struts on this car. I have seen lots of people complaining.. one of them at 21,000 miles.. and this hasn't been recalled" what gives" also, I can't lock my car from the outside anymore. The airbag light is always on saying its not working. This car has lots of problems and I just bought it a year ago and ready to get rid of it and buy something else. Definitely not a Suzuki ever again.

2006 Suzuki Forenza wagon issues so far: 63K - check engine light came on and a line through the D on the instrument panel showed up, which acts like the car is in neutral. When trying to accelerate the car has no power. If you pull over, turn the car off and restart it then the car is back to normal. It has done this 4 times now in the past 2 weeks. 60K - a couple of months ago the window washer pump went out and I had to replace it. I did it myself and it still cost me $85. Front seatbelt acts like it latches but then comes back out (this problem was recalled). 40K - the air bag light is also lit up on the car.

The check trans/motor light came on in my car.I made an appt. At Suzuki. It was on for 6 days. It went off, then the air bag light came on. It stayed on. I mentioned that there were loose wires hanging under my seat when I dropped it off. They said a wire came loose and that I should not put anything under my seat.I say that the wires are so loose that if someone put there feet under the seat, there feet could get caught up in the wires and unhook them. Then my airbags won't work, correct".if I get in an accident and they don't work, would that be considered unsafe" the dealer said the wires had to be loose because the seat moves and that nobody could get there feet caught in the wires. Loose wires under a seat that control a safety device.. sounds unsafe to me..I took it in for the passenger side airbags right after I bought it.. they said wasn't broke and gave me a letter that says the passenger airbag light will come on if the passenger is not seated correctly in the seat.. sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. they fixed it this time, too much resistance.
