I received 3 urgent letters telling me my2008 Suzuki Grand Vitara has an airbag recall passenger side and needed to be repaired right away. But Suzuki only has a few dealers left and none close to me so I have to drive my children in this unsafe car. So I called the dealer and they said I have to drop my car off 3 hours away and leave it for however long it takes to be repaired. And they said they have no loaner cars. They said for me to. Go rent a car and then I can get reimbursed but I cannot do that I don't have the credit card neede to rent a car so I'm forced to drive this car I'm a single mom and disabled. I cannot go one hour without my car. But the recall is not being repaired because of this and my passenger airbag light comes on and off when just l sitting still. It scares me and is unsafe. I must have some rights I figured I would start my complaint here then the govorner or bbb I'm sick of this. I have to drive an u safe car and it's not my fault I can't travel hours to drop my car at the only dealer that will fix the recall and make my car safe again k. Angry and scared.

The belt has slipped on three separate occasions , I had no other choice but to pay for a new belt tensioner because my life was at risk.

13 Air Bag problem of the 2012 Suzuki Grand Vitara

Failure Date: 09/12/2016

On September 12 2016 aproximately at 2:00am my wife was impacted on the drivers side door waiting for the green light. The vehicle was at a stanstill when a Jeep late 90s model hit her full force on the drivers side door, luckily the fortification of the bar inside the door that goes across took the blunt of the impact and my wife only came out with minoir bruises and cuts from the drivers window. Neither the drivers airbag or the passenger airbag deployed and that concerns me because the vehicle wass estimated to be going around 40mph when it impacted my wifes car. Ive notified my local dealer where Suzuki vehicles are dealt with and its been said that since theres no recall theres nothing to be done.

15 Air Bag problem of the 2006 Suzuki Grand Vitara

Failure Date: 09/16/2015

The vehicle was shipped to a Suzuki dealer in puerto rico and then shipped back to the USA. Once shipped to puerto rico, Suzuki provides a specific VIN as vehicles exported out of the USA. The vehicle was shipped back to USA in 2009 and ever since I have received three safety recall notifications to have done by local Suzuki dealer. We contacted the local Suzuki dealers several times and the VIN does not appear in their system at all. I been told they will not service my vehicle being that it was ship from puerto rico and the only place they would fix the recall would be there. I have contacted corporate Suzuki multiple times and been told they can't do much to try to negotiate with the dealer again which has refused to do the service. I have been many hours explaining my situation to different individuals from dealer and Suzuki and never come to a solution after several months. I'm told that vehicles shipped to puerto rico (us territory) and back to us are not covered under these safety recalls despite I am receiving the notification to my ohio address. Its been several months we been trying to solve this issue and always get the run around. One of the recall is related to air bags and differential train locking due to faulty seal. The vehicle was being driven by my daughter for school and we've now have restricted her from driving the vehicle concerned for these issues. We would appreciate any support or assistance you may provide to solving this issue.

28 Air Bag problem of the 2007 Suzuki Grand Vitara

Failure Date: 12/30/2010

Several years ago, the warning/reminder lights for the passenger seat belt and airbag came on and would not go off. I call the dealer and ask about any recalls, I was told that there were no recalls for this specific problem and I would have to pay to have the car diagnosed and repaired. Last year, I had my car service at jack phelan Suzuki in countryside, IL and inquired about it again. I was told the same thing; I would be responsible for the repair. I recently received notification from Suzuki about the same problem and they would repair at no cost to me, provided that the vehicle is less than 10 years old or less than 120,000 miles. My car has 155,00 miles. I called and asked if they would make an exception and was told no. I reported this problem and they were well aware of this problem and now are refusing to fix it. I think they should repair it, as they have known about this issue from other owners besides myself. I don't know where else to go to for help and would really appreciate some assistance with this.
