“WHILE DRIVING SUCH CAR THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON AND STATE SOLID SO I PULL OFF THE STREET TO CHECK WHAT'S GOING AND SHUT OFF THE CAR AFTER THAT THE CAR DO NOT START IMMEDIATELY SO TAKE THREE TIMES TO STARTED IT. SINCE THEN THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHTS STAY ON.”

“THE FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT COMES ON INTERMITTENTLY. THERE IS A KNOWN RECALL OF THE 2009 SUZUKI SX4 FOR A PROBLEM WITH THE SENSOR IN THE RIGHT FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. I BOUGHT THIS CAR AS A USED VEHICLE IN DECEMBER 2013. I HAVE ATTEMPTED TO CONTACT SUZUKI MOTOR OF AMERICA DIRECTLY BY TWO SEPARATE LETTERS TO INQUIRE ABOUT HAVING THE NECESSARY REPAIR MADE; ALSO I HAVE CALLED THREE DESIGNATED DEALERSHIPS THAT HANDLE SUZUKI WARRANTY REPAIRS IN ORLANDO, TAMPA, AND ST. PETERSBURG, FL TO INQUIRE ABOUT THE STATUS OF THE RECALL. I HAVE RECEIVED NO RESPONSE FROM SUZUKI MOTOR OF AMERICA, AND THE DEALERS KNOW NOTHING ABOUT THE STATUS OF THIS RECALL, OTHER THAN VERIFYING THAT MY VEHICLE IS ONE OF THOSE AFFECTED BY THE RECALL. I AM CONCERNED THAT, SHOULD THIS VEHICLE BE INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT WITH A PASSENGER IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT, THAT THE AIRBAG WILL NOT DEPLOY AS IT SHOULD, THUS POTENTIALLY LEADING TO A SERIOUS PASSENGER INJURY. I WOULD LIKE ASSISTANCE IN GETTING SUZUKI TO FOLLOW THROUGH WITH THE RECALL REPAIRS FOR THIS DEFECT. *TR”

“FIRST ISSUE IS THE AIRBAGS - DRIVER SIDE CENSOR LIGHT HAS BEEN ON EVER SINCE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE BACK IN 2010. I HAD TO GET THE ENGINE REPLACED DUE TO "ROD KNOCK" ONLY TO FIND THAT THE USED ENGINE OF 52,XXX MILES HAS A LEAK ON THE REAR MAIN SEAL. IT'S LIKELY THAT ISSUE THAT LEAD TO MY ORIGINAL ENGINE FAILING AT AROUND 74,000 MILES. THE DRIVER AIRBAG LIGHT IS STILL ON AFTER SAID ENGINE REPLACING. AFTER READING THE COMPLAINTS ON HERE, IT'S SAFE TO SAY THAT I'LL NEED TO DISH OUT OVER 1.1K TO FIX IT. I HAD THE RECALL FOR THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG, HAD THAT FIXED AROUND THE 74K MILE MARK. GOT THE CAR UNDER 20K MILES.”

“PURCHASED VEHICLE ON 6/29/12. AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT CAME ON TWO WEEKS LATER. RESEARCH INDICATES THAT MY AIRBAGS ARE NOW DISABLED. AUTHORIZED SUZUKI DEALER/REPAIR FACILITY IS 125 MILES AWAY. ON LINE BLOGS AND THIS WEBSITE INDICATE PROBLEMS WITH DISCONNECT IN SEAT SENSOR EMBEDDED WITHIN FRONT PASSENGER SEAT CUSHION. SUZUKI WILL NOT COVER COSTS TO REPAIR/REPLACE SEAT CUSHION. SAFETY ISSUE SEAMS TO BE WITH ALL SUZUKI SX4'S. HOW DO WE, THE CONSUMER, GET AMERICAN SUZUKI TO RECALL THIS AIRBAG ISSUE? [XXX] *TR”

“CHIRPING OF ACCESSORY DRIVE BELT AREAD NOTICED. SUZUKI REPLACED SERPENTINE BELT AND TENSIONER PULLEY OUT OF WARRANTY. SEEMS LIKE SOMETHING IS WRONG WHEN REPLACING A TENSIONER PULLEY BELOW 35000 MILES. *TR”
