2002 Suzuki XL-7 review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Air conditioner went out 2 weeks after the warranty ran out from the factory.
Belt squeals, and I am replacing the brakes for the second time in the past three years today.
I love the car, but it sure gets hot sitting at the stoplights. Also in the winter time, my feet freeze because there is no vent on the drivers side. I just pray for Spring and Fall.
I paid full price for a demonstrator. Much more than I wanted to, but it was the only car the dealership seemed to want to sell me. Recently the dealership closed. Wonder why?
General comments?
From all the comments I have read, the air conditioning should be on recall. They should replace them without cost to the owner. They should redesign the vent system for heat and air.
