2007 Suzuki Forenza

THE ITEMS THAT ARE FAULTY ON THIS 2007 SUZUKI FORENZA ARE THE PAINT ON THE OUTSIDE DOOR HANDLES, AND THE INSIDE DOOR LATCHES. I BOUGHT THIS 2007 SUZUKI FORENZA CAR BRAND NEW AND WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR, I HAD TO REPLACE 2 OF MY DOOR HANDLE LATCHES INSIDE BECAUSE THEY BROKE OFF. NOT LONG AFTER THAT, MY OTHER TWO LATCHES BROKE. IN THE 1ST YEAR, THE PAINT ON THE DOOR HANDLES BEGAN TO WEAR OFF. WHEN I FIRST HAD MY DOOR REPAIRED, I WAS TOLD BY THE SUZUKI REPAIR SHOP REPRESENTATIVE, THAT THE BREAKING LATCHES WAS A COMMON COMPLAINT WITH THIS PARTICULAR MODEL . *TR

TRANSMISSION WOULD SOMETIMES SLIP WHAT FEELS LIKE NEUTRAL (NO POWER) WHILE IN DRIVE. OTHER TIMES TRANSMISSION WOULD STAY IN DRIVE AND WOULD NOT DOWN SHIFT AUTO OR MANUAL. FREQUENCY IS INCREASING. COST AT DEALER IS FINANCIALLY PROHIBITIVE AT THIS TIME. RESEARCH INDICATES PROBLEM IS COMMON TO THIS AND PRIOR YEAR MANUFACTURE. *TR

I HAVE HAD TO REPAIR SO MUCH ON THIS CAR IN SUCH A SHORT AMOUNT OF TIME, I AM GOING NUTS...ALMOST EVERY MONTH ITS SOMETHING ELSE! I HAVE HAD BLOWN HEAD GASKETS, REPLACED BROKEN DOOR HANDLES (THEY BROKE AGAIN), CHIPPING PAINT (FOR NO REASON), BRAKE LIGHT SWITCH SYSTEM, NOW THE TRANSMISSION RANGE SENSOR IS BAD. TO REPLACE THE TIRES, THE CHEAPEST YOU CAN FIND IS $130/TIRE NEW. I AM OUT OF THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS WHEN THE CARE WAS SUPPOSED TO BE UNDER WARRANTY AND "AMERICAS BEST POWERTRAIN" BUT EVERYTHING IN THE CAR THAT IS GOING BAD, ISN'T COVERED! MY 2007 SUZUKI FORENZA SUCKS! *TR
