Not even a full month after purchasing a 2006 Suzuki Forenza sedan, the car doesn't start after sitting just overnight for the last two weeks that I've owned it. When I called keystone motors in montgomerville, PA, the manager was smug and unprofessional. And even though they are a j. D. Powers associate winner, he said he didn't care about j. D. Powers. They are going to look at the car, but I told them if just one more thing goes wrong, I will be trading for a car that runs.
Ever since I bought my 2005 Suzuki Forenza wagon, I have had problems with it starting. I would turn the key and the engine would sound like it was going to start, but I would then have to turn the all the way to the off position to restart and then it would finally turn over. I have brought my car in three different times to the dealership where I purchased it and they say nothing is wrong with it. Obviously there is. They try to say it is from the cold or something else and they claim they "have done all they can do and that nothing is wrong with it. " it has had this problem in summer, fall, winter, and spring. It even happened in az in September when it was 110 degrees. My warranty is up in June and I need to have this corrected before then. I also maintain my car very well, so that isn't the problem either.
