"No major faults, but plastic on plastic rattles disappointing. First and last Suzuki for us"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Failed passenger front door locking mechanism.

Numerous minor rattles.

General comments?

Well build and put together, but hard interior plastics and lack of plastic on plastic insulation make rattles quite common. Most easy to fix (at home after dealer fails too).

Roomy in the front, squeezy rear seat (fine for small kids).

Transmission a little baulky from 1st to 2nd.

Engine quite tractable and enjoyable.

Good ride/handling compromise.

Still the best looks in its class.

How do you go about fixing the plastic-to-plastic rattles?

It seems EVERY Swift has rattles...

Yes, at least they don't seem to get worse after the day you take delivery. :)
