2004 Suzuki Forenza S model review from North America
"I wouldn't recommend this car to anyone"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Car will not go into reverse easily will grind and hesitate. Transmission will pop out of fifth gear when I take foot off of gas and accelerate again
2nd Transmission is being put in tomorow.
The engine sensors (map, idle&O2) keep failing and check engine light is constantly on
The engine keeps reeving high around 2800 RPM
The steering column has a severe sqeak while the wheel is being turned.
General comments?
This car has a nice and quiet ride. The stereo is nice and the bottom of the line S model is loaded out with options.
The car is very roomy on the inside with plenty of cup holders and a nice size trunk. The brakes respond great and has good ground clearence. However the vechile averages about 26 mile per gallon on the highway with a little city driving.
