Trying to get vehicle inspected and the inspection guy informed that there is a probably leak in the exhaust system causing loud noise. The noise could be heard in the car even when not hit heavy on the gas pedal. Although the vehicle is reasonable old, for 50K miles such breakage is exhaust is not expected. This could be a result of faulty equipment or misfitting. Basically I need to get it fixed before it can pass state inspection.

2008 Suzuki SX4 crossover driver airbag light and passenger seatbelt light are on constantly. Contacted Suzuki customer service, took vehicle to authorized Suzuki dealership. Diagnosed problem, will cost over 2200 to make vehicle safe to operate. Service man informed us none of the airbags will function until 2200$ repairs are made. Car is not under warranty. If I choose to have the passenger seat cushion replaced this will make the third seat cushion as it has been replaced another time already under warranty. Suzuki customer service told me since car is out of warranty I have to pay. They told me to have service manager contact their technical rep and open a case and maybe they might help me in some unspecified way. Suzuki dealership would not give us a loaner car and Suzuki customer service would not authorize loaner vehicle. We have to drive this little deathtrap without any airbags. If you go online and type in Suzuki SX4 airbag light on you see this is a widespread problem. We can`T afford to pay for another airbag sensor that will only last a short time and then leave us vulnerable and unprotected. Please help us and others like us who don`T have the money to pay for Suzuki`S poor quality and defective safety equipment. Thank you.
