2007 Suzuki Reno power train problems

“MY 2007 SUZUKI RENO ONLY HAVE AROUND 56000 MILES AND IT STARTED TO SHAKE WHILE PUTTING IT ON REVERSE GEAR. DON'T MOVE SOMETIME AFTER PUTTING IT ON DRIVE AND MAKE LOUD NOISE AS I TRY TO ACCELERATE, ENGINE LIGHT IS ON SINCE JULY 2ND AND THESE ISSUES STARTED FROM THAT TIME. I TOOK IT TO A LOCAL O'REILLY TO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CODE AND THEY SAID ITS A TRANSMISSION RELATED CODE.”

“WHEN ATTEMPTING TO SHIFT THE VEHICLE FROM PARK TO REVERSE OR DRIVE THERE WILL BE A LOUD CLUNK SOUND. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WILL COME ON AND THE VEHICLE WILL NOT ACCELERATE. IF YOU SHUT THE VEHICLE OFF AND THEN RESTART, IT WILL THEN ACCELERATE BUT WILL NOT SHIFT PROPERLY. I HAD THE VEHICLE TO KEN POLLOCK SUZUKI DEALERSHIP IN PENNSYLVANIA WHEN IT WAS STILL COVERED UNDER WARRANTY AND THEY CHARGED ME $100.00 DOLLARS TO RUN A DIAGNOSTIC CODE SCAN. THEY SAID THAT THEY COULD NOT FIND THE PROBLEM BUT WHEN ASKED TO EXPLAIN THE CODES THAT WERE RETRIEVED, I WAS INFORMED THAT THEY WERE GENERIC TRANSMISSION CODES AND THAT THEY WOULD NOT OR COULD NOT FIX THE VEHICLE. THIS IS A ONGOING PROBLEM AND A SEVERE SAFETY CONCERN CONSIDERING THE AMOUNT OF COMPLAINTS LOGGED AGAINST THIS MODEL VEHICLE. *TR”

“I HAD LOSS OF POWER, THE CAR WAS NOT GOING INTO GEAR, WENT INTO NEUTRAL WHILE DRIVING REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION RANGE SENSOR ROUGHLY 8MOS AGO AND I AM NOW EXPERIENCING THE SAME SYMPTOMS NOW AND JUST ORDERED THE PART FROM SUZUKI DEALERSHIP. *JS”

“TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 SUZUKI RENO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE SHOOK, HESITATED, AND LOST ACCELERATION INTERMITTENTLY. THE FAILURE OCCURRED AT VARIOUS SPEEDS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHO STATED THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 78,000.”

“I HAVE REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION RANGE SENSOR TWICE SINCE PURCHASING MY CAR NEW IN 2008 AND JUST LAST WEEK I STARTED HAVING THE SAME ISSUE! SO I WILL BE REPLACING THIS SAME PART FOR THE 3RD TIME SINCE PURCHASINGIT NEW 6 YEARS AGO. *TR”

“I HAVE A 2007 SUZUKI RENO. THIS VEHICLE HAS GONE THROUGH FIVE (5) TRANSMISSION RAGE SENSORS SINCE I BOUGHT IT NEW IN NOVEMBER, 2006. STARTED HAVING PROBLEMS WITHIN TWO MONTHS. DEALERSHIP IN ROCK HILL, SC HAD ALREADY SHUT DOWN AND DOORS WERE PADLOCKED. HAVE PAID A LOT OF MONEY TO HAVE THIS SAME SENSOR CHANGED FIVE TIMES. WHY HAS SUZUKI NOT RECALLED THIS VEHICLE TO CORRECT THE TRANSMISSION PROBLEM?? WHY HAS THE NHTSA DONE NOTHING FOR ALL OF THESE COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE? MY CAR "SHIFTS" INTO NEUTRAL GOING DOWN HIGHWAY CAUSING LOSS OF POWER AND ACCELERATION WITHOUT NOTICE; THEN CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON. IT IS VERY UNNERVING AND UNSAFE!!! PLEASE DO SOMETHING!! *TR”
