About These NHTSA Complaints:
The NHTSA is the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints can be spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem. See the Back button — blue bar at the very top of the page — to explore more.
Vehicle has been repeatedly stalling since may of 2005 and been in the dealer's shop to be repaired at least four times with no improvement in the defect. Vehicle stalls at deacceleration and at idle without warning. This is an extreme safety concern. The Suzuki dealer has reprogrammed the fuel system control chip at least two times. Suzuki motors America has now told the dealer to try replacing the throttle sensor and the cam sensor. The dealer (wendle Suzuki) has been very cooperative, but Suzuki is extremely slow to try to solve this problem.

2004 Suzuki Verona--- (1.) January 07, 2005- 7:00am- engine stalled and engine light came on. I drove vehicle to ferman Suzuki dealership where it was repaired in approximately 30-45 mins. (2.) January. 24, 2005- 4:45pm - engine stalled again and engine light came on. (2nd time in 2 weeks.) dealer was supposed to call me today to advise when I could bring it in. (I have not heard from them as yet.) when I took the vehicle in yesterday, they said they do not have any appts. For a week. Also, they could not provide me with a loaner car. I drove car from the lot. (3.) salesman, paul morris advised me and my friend that this happened to another customer. Her engine fell out of her car while driving down the interstate. Per paul, Suzuki paid off her loan and replaced the vehicle. (4.) I advised paul and the service man that this sounds like a "lemon law" situation brewing here. Also, since they know that this happened before, they should have taken my car into the shop and given me a loaner car. (5.) I contacted the NHTSA and was advised of the recall for the engine stalling on the Suzuki Verona. I was advised to enter a complaint on their web-site.
