SUZUKI VERONA 2004: COMPUTER CHIP HAS TO BE REPROGRAMMED BECAUSE IT DOESN'T REGULATE THE ENGINE. THEN WHEN THIS IS DONE THE O-2 SENSORS AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON. THE COMPUTER CHIP CAUSES THE CAR TO HESITATE, STALL AND BACKFIRE. (FLASH OF CHIP NEEDED) SUZUKI THEN PROMISES CUSTOMER THAT THEY WILL GET A CAR PAYMENT FOR THEIR TROUBLE IN AN ATTEMPT TO ENTICE THEM TO...RELEASE SUZUKI FROM ARBITRATION....BUT THE CHECK IS A SCAM. (THEY ALLEDGEDLY WITHDREW THE OFFER WHEN I ASKED FOR EITHER A TRADE UP TO A NON LEMON OR DEFECTIVE CAR OR ARBITRATION) THERE NEVER WAS ANY PROOF OF ANY CHECK GIVEN TO ME. SUZUKI CLAIMS THEY HAD TO OBTAIN "APPROVAL" FROM EPA TO REWRITE THE CHIP"...BUT I NEVER RECEIVED ANY RECALL NOTICE. IM UNCERTAIN OF THE TECHNICAL TERMS BUT I BELIEVE IF EPA WAS INVOLVED THAT SUZUKI..VERONA MIGHT NOT MEET EMISSIONS STANDARDS. ON THE DATE THERE ISN'T A CERTAIN DATE. *AK
