2006 Suzuki Forenza review from North America
"A piece of junk"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Battery wouldn't hold a charge when the car was brand new, almost causing me to be in a serious accident on a major highway.
The airbag indicator light continuously lit up, about 8 times, resulting in numerous trips to the dealer.
General comments?
This car is junk, and I'm very sorry that I purchased it.
The battery not holding the charge was a very serious flaw that could have resulted in serious consequences for me i.e. accident/loss of life.
The dealer has a very dismissive attitude when I returned to talk to him about all the problems that cropped up during just the first 2 months of owning the car.
I will go out of my way to tell everyone who asks, what a piece of junk the Suzuki is, and to steer clear of buying one... ever!
