"Good car, but should be checked before selling to customers"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Seats make a squeaking sound from the day I bought the car.

The door locks do not work.

Plastic clips on the carpets and interior have started to come out.

General comments?

A good car, but the seats and side covers of the doors are of low quality.

Hi.

First time on this site & I am reading these reviews with interest. Its been a while since I have been in Pakistan, but I travel a lot & I can't believe that people posting these messages have no understanding of mechanics.

Suzuki is a cheap car with a small engine (low BHP & torque) so what do you expect?

I have spent a few minutes looking at the engine specs & they are still using 1970s (or early 80's) straight aspirated engines!

If you wants to switch to LPG (or CNG in Pakistan) then use multi-point injection systems, but it appears to me that most kits in Pakistan are single-point and some of these cars are 8 valve rather then 16 valve (significant reduction in compression ratios)

I can't beleive that people in Pakistan have so much money to dish out for old & outdated/engineering...I have visited other third world countries which are poorer then Pakistan, but even they don't expect the performance of a Ferrari from a 1.0 Ltr 8 vavle single-point straight aspired engine!

In the West Suzuki is a "CHEAP" below-average car & that's where it belongs. I will end the note with a saying in English, "You pay peanuts: You get Monkeys"

I am not trying to offend anyone just trying to set the expectations straight.

Thanks.

Wow, blaming the victim. Haha. I visited the showroom and without sitting in noticed the following.

1- Fuel cap lid not straight to body line

2- Rear door rubbers curled up and forced out

3- Rear hatch had to be banged hard to close

4- Limited open angle of rear door

5- No luggage area due to CNG

6- Try turning the car at 60Km/h the tires squeal like crazy

7- What about a long ride, better take along something for the back pain haha

8- Rude sales people

9- Only 1 year warranty, and from other comments it appears that nothing is covered under it.

Thanks we can live without the Cultus. I am happy with my 22 year old car, still more comfortable than it. By the way I am happy that my people demand quality, and not afraid to ask for it.
