We were in our apartment when the complex maintenance worker knocked on our door and said our car was on fire. The car was off, sitting in the parking lot unused. We went outside and waited for the fire department to arrive, and put out the fire. It was found that the wiring behind the fuse panel had caught fire and caused extensive damage to the dash and door panel. It was after this that we found out there was a recall on our vehicle we had not been notified about.

On 12/3/08 @ 12:30 a. M. , my 2007 Suzuki Forenza caught fire resulting in a total loss. I've contacted Suzuki & I'm awaiting there return call. The fire marshall ruled out arson & concluded that the origin of the fire was underneath the hood resulting from electrical wiring in the vehicle. I purchased the vehicle in may of 2008 & I've never had a problem since the purchase. On 12/2/08, I drove the vehicle once in the morning & then again in the evening. Both trips were short distances. On the evening/early morning of 12/3/08 I woke up to my car engulfed in flames.
