| Exterior Lighting problems |
Instrument cluster panel has embedded led lights, no replaceable bulbs. . . Forces entire cluster replacement from unsalvageable or used/salvaged vehicles with no guarantee of true internal condition temporarily or long-term, leading to many safety & dysfunction issues, including "rigged" components such as false mileage, etc. My xl7 odometer/trip meter blacked out at 130k miles, should last lifetime of vehicle. Suzuki no longer manufacturing the clusters, too cost-prohibitive for owners if they were still making them. Many, many owners on forums & online sites complaining of this issue and seeking help or parts from others. I've personally read hundreds. Suzuki needs to remedy this issue immediately so owners can be safe driving & assured of no dysfunction, and protected from further damage related to mileage tampering, including hidden and excessively aged engine/parts.
