2004 Suzuki Verona

I HAVE HAD A SERIES OF SAFETY CONCERNS INVOLVING A RECALL NOTICE THAT WAS ISSUED DUE TO A DEFECT WHICH EXISTS IN ALL 2004 SUZUKI VERONA PASSENGER CARS. THE ENGINE CONTROL MODULE (ECM) HAS A PROGRAM FAULT WHICH CAUSES THE FUEL TO AIR RATIO TO BECOME TOO LEAN IN SOME CIRCUMSTANCES, RESULTS IN ENGINE STALLING. IF STALLING OCCURS, THIS CAN RESULT IN LOSS OF CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND A CRASH COULD OCCUR WITHOUT PRIOR WARNING. I PURCHASED A 2004 SUZUKI VERONA EX 2.5L AUTOMATIC, VEHICLE ID [XXX] ON 10/04/03 AT THE AUBURN SUZUKI DEALERSHIP, GIANT OF THE VALLEY. I RETURNED TO THE DEALER A DOZEN TIMES FOR THE SAME IDLE FLUCTUATION ISSUE AS WELL AS THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMING ON. I WAS TOLD THAT THE CAR WAS FINE AND THAT I COULD CONTINUE TO DRIVE IT EVEN WITH THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON. I WAS TOLD THAT THEY WERE WORKING THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ISSUE. ON 5/9/05 MY CAR IS DROPPED OFF AT SUZUKI. ON 5/10/05 I RECEIVED A CALL (VOICE MESSAGE ON MY CELL PHONE) FROM JIM GOLDEN AT 5:09 P.M. STATING THAT THEY ORDERED A THROTTLE BODY ASSEMBLY AND THAT IT WOULD RESOLVE THE ISSUES OF IDLE DROPPING AND IDLE QUALITY. ON 5/11/05 I RETURNED JIM GOLDEN?S CALL AT 7:00 A.M. AND STATED THAT I WAS NOT CONVINCED THAT THE THROTTLE BODY ASSEMBLY WOULD FIX MY CAR AND REQUESTED A REFUND. I ALSO STATED THAT I WAS FILING FOR THE WASHINGTON STATE LEMON LAW AT WHICH TIME I WAS TOLD THAT THE DISTRICT REPRESENTATIVE WOULD CALL ME. ON 5/12/05 THE DISTRICT REPRESENTATIVE, LEONARD SMITH CALLS ME AND STATES THAT THERE IS NOTHING HE CAN DO ABOUT IT. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND WANT A REPURCHASE OF THE 2004 SUZUKI VERONA. *JS INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

I RECENTLY PURCHASED A NEW SUZULI VERONA. I WHAD PUT L;ESS THAT 2000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE WHEN THE VEHICLE LOST POWER (WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE). I HAD TO PULL OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND CALL FOR A TOW TRUCK. MY VEHICLE WAS TOWED BACK TO THE DEALER AND UPON THEIR INSPECTION, I HAD A COMPLETE FAILURE OF THE ENGINE WHICH REQUIRED A BRAND NEW ENGINE TO BE PUT IN MY VEHICLE. I HAVE ASKED SUZULI TO REPLACE MY CAR INSTEAD OF GIVING ME BACK THE ONE I PURCHASED 4 WEEKS AGO. STILL NO ANSWER. I WOULD HAVE NEVER EXPECTED A COMPLETE ENGINE FAILURE ON A BRAND NEW VEHICLE I OWNED LESS THAN A MONTH WITH LESS THAN 2000 MILES ON IT.

I HAVE A 2004 SUZUKI VERONA PURCHASED MAY 2004 FROM TAO SUZUKI, FUQUAY VARINA, NC. ALMOST FROM THE START THE VEHICLE HAS HAD A HISTORY OF FREQUENTLY RUNNING ROUGH AND/OR STALLING OUT. A COUPLE OF TIMES I ALMOST GOT HIT BY OTHER VEHICLES AS A RESULT OF THE STALLING. DEALER HAS MADE ADJUSTMENTS TO THE FUEL M IXTURE AND STATED THAT IT SHOULD BE FINE. IT CONTINUES TO OCCASIONALLY RUN ROUGH AND ALSO STALLS OUT. THE LATEST INCIDENT WAS TODAY, 29 APRIL 2005. I FEEL IT IS A POTENTIAL HAZARD TO DRIVE.*AK
