2005 Suzuki Forenza LX Wagon review from North America

THE ONLY thing that is ANNOYING to me that the ENGINE LIGHT. The last couple months (6), it is been turning on and on. I brought the car to the dealer the first time it came on and they told me that it was inaccurate information, the computer did not detect any problem. They rebooted the computer and everything was fine for a couple more weeks. Then it comes on again, and this time is time for 30K, they fixed it again. One month later, light is ON again. I brought the car yesterday (august 24) to the dealer. This is what they told me: There is a problem on the software of the computer, the technician from my dealer service called the HOT LINE from Suzuki, and they informed them that Suzuki is working on the software to correct this glitch on the software. It will take a couple more weeks until it will become available for the Suzuki owners. Meanwhile, I am to be running my car as usual, and not to worry about it. I questioned back: "what if there is a problem and I will not know because the car has the light on all the time". Technician told me that I will notice malfunction on the car despite the light. I AM NOT SATISFIED with this situation and I am sure that other people would not be as well. It makes me wonder if it was a good deal having switched from VW to Suzuki.

We bought a Suzuki - Forenza, model 2005. I love this care despite what people say of the take off. Yes, It can be slow to take off (Ford Focus or VW Golf are much better in this point). However the car is very spacious, trunk is unbelievably big with hide away compartments, and the roof of the car can also accommodate more luggages as we added a make for this purpose bag.
