Front strut mounts & braking system are bad on 2004 Suzuki Forenza. Went to several shops to get them inspected and every shop found the same problem was even told this is a common problem with this model and a hazard to drive. Researched and many consumers online have complained about this. The car shakes and the struts wiggle and hard time breaking.
Strut assembly of vehicle has an inch of vertical play, hence vehicle not able to be aligned. Vehicle is 2004 Suzuki firenza. Have addressed issue with 3 different dealers and none can agree on what the problem is. One even stated that was normal for vehicle. Called manufacturer in brea CA, and they refused to address the issue. Furthermore I was refused the right bvto speak to management person. Since my vehicle can't be align, I have a safety issue that needs to be resolved.
