My 2004 Suzuki Grand Vitara has a problem with the accelerator getting stuck down. It has happened twice this year (07). I was lucky both times as it happened before I had gotten onto the highway. And no one was hurt either time. I looked up Suzuki recalls online and found a recall for my make and model. However, when I called Suzuki and a local Suzuki dealer, I was told my VIN was not on their recall lists. This is a very dangerous problem and should be addressed by the manufacturer. I wonder how many people may have died since 2004 from accidents caused by their accelerator sticking? how many deaths or permanent injuries will it take to convince Suzuki that this problem is far more widespread than they thought???.
While pulling into the driveway driver depressed the brake pedal and vehicle suddenly accelerated and crashed into the residence. In January 2004 vehicle was repaired under a recall for the throttle cable.
I was parked in parking lot of usps ready to leave. I had gotten there about 20 mins before. Car gave me no indication of any malfunction on way there. I turned car on and shifted to reverse;let go of emergency break when car jolted in reverse across to other side of parking . It jumped the cement molding on floor banged against iron railing knocking it down. As soon as I felt the jolt I pulled back on the emergency break and nothing happened. Luckily no one was hurt. I saw that there was a recall on this vehicle but I am not the original owner. Do I have any rights on this matter?.
