Structure problem #1

Quite a few of the screws or grommets that hold the body parts onto my car have fell out. My front bumper was barely bumped and it broke one of the clips on the bumper and is now tied up with a shoe string. My a/c compressor has already had to be replaced and for some reason the cooling fans are not working properly. The structure on this car is poor. The lock to the drivers side doow just spins now, so it needs to be replace. I have already had to replace the trunks lock due to same problem. I have had to replace the ignition switch also due to key not operating properly. Clips from both bumpers have fallen off for no reason. I expected more from a Suzuki car. I belileve this will be my last purchase from them.

Bumper problem #2

1. The screws that hold the door lock assembly simply fell out of the door 2. Passenger front door only opens when it wants, lock sticks 3. Body part screws have fallen off of the car causing body parts to fall off while driving. 4. Screws holding front bumper on fell out and bumper fell off. 5. Trunk lock simply turns in circular motion when trying to open with a key 6. Passenger front door sometimes will not stay closed due to lock assembly not functioning properly 7. Car will not go into 4th gear without warming up, yet all systems check ok when tested at mechanic shops. No one will do anything about it because I bought it used form a dealer. They say the warranty expired and there is nothing they can do.
