Airbag light has been on since I purchased this car April 6th 2016 and driver seatbelt broke recent. January 29 2017 both lowbeam headlights went out,these things were recalled but they say my VIN#doesn't match recalls and won't service or honor these recalls! thanks.

I took my car in to find out why the airbag light for the passenger side was on by the clock and on my dash. Come to find out the part that I need to fix it is hard to find and that the part is also bad. In order to fix my problem it will cost me $2500 to fix it. So I think I will wait till it gets recalled along with the airbags. So now no one can sit in the front passenger seat!!.

Drivers side airbag light stays on. Not sure airbag would inflate if I was in a accident or if it might inflate on its own while I am driving and cause a accident. I also cannot find a Suzuki dealership anymore that could do a recall repair if there is one.
Despite several attempts to fix the connection problems on the side airbags for both the passenger and driver side, the airbag light is still on. This is after Suzuki realized that the wiring harness was stretched too tight when the seat was rolled back into it's full length. The fix was to break the connection off of the bottom of the seat, wrap the connection in velcro, and stick the connection onto to carpeted floor. Despite several times of having the airbag light cleared, the light has once again come on. According to online research, many other drivers are having this exact same problem.

I was driving too school and the air bag light just turned on. Till this day the light has not turned off haven't went to Suzuki to go check this out, this car is nothing but problems.
My 2008 Suzuki Reno has over 100,000 miles and I first experienced symptoms sometime in June 2010 only a year after I bought it. At first it was just that the car seemed to have trouble accelerating from a stop (like at a traffic light) and the check engine light came on. After that the symptoms got increasingly worse. It would intially have the same symptoms as listed above, then it would get better and the check engine light would turn off. Then I started getting the periodic clunk and scrambled gear display like all the gears with a line thru it on the dash. I told my husband who can work on older model cars and he drove it around the block with no problem, then he was in the car with my going down the interstate and it did it and almost made the car come to a complete stop from almost 70mph with vehicles behind us. I called the service department where I got it and they said that if the light wasn't staying on all the time, then there wasn't anything they would be able to do but that it didn't sound like it would be covered under warranty. I have had nothing but problems with my 2008 Reno since it reached 70,000 miles. I've kept up on my maintenance. Also both of my airbag lights stay on all the time, the passenger light stays on as if no one is sitting in it even with a 200 pound person sitting in the seat. The car hasn't been in any accidents to make them not read right.
2005 Suzuki Reno, air bag light comes on shortly after numerous repairs. Purchased car used with 43,436 miles from classic dealer ship in mentor , ohio. They also took car to Suzuki to dealer ship for repair before I took delivery, and then airbag light came on shortly after. I understand this is a common problem and from what I understand the bags will not deploy in a accident? regards, marshall kidd.
Airbag lights come on without incident, they have been turned off at the Suzuki dealer in the rivergate area of nashville in 2010. Since then, they have come on twice and have been able to turn them off. They came on again December of 2011, have not been able to turn them off. Car has not had any damage, wreck, water or storm. I have read online Suzuki is aware of this problem, please contact me if you can be of any help.
Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6) the airbag light is on with my 2006 Suzuki Reno. VIN # [xxx]. You have issued at a technical service bulletin #ts0501158 NHTSA item #10024195 which warns of this item being related to an overpressure airbag. However, the dealerships do not have record of a recall. This, in my estimation is very severe safety issue. Please intiate a recall expeditiously.
My 2006 Reno has had airbag light on all the time for years . It has been reset multiple times , only to come on again . What's entirely wrong with the current airbag recall that the NHTSA is currently having is the fact Suzuki ( gm ) is trying to say it only effects grand vitara's and sx4's . I beg to differ . This company new all along the airbag problem existed , just check some of the old Suzuki problem bulletins 4&5 years ago . And it's not only 290,000 vehicles and/or only 2 models . This recall should absolutely be increased to cover Reno's , forenza's etc; . These companies don't buy separate airbag components , they buy bulk ( its just cost effective . ) any fifth grader knows that . Again this recall needs to be looked into much further then 2 vehicles . And now with all the dealers gone you have no recourse to solve their inferior components problem , so once again the working man takes the hit ! fyi , rich people weren't buying these cars hard working people were !.
I have a 2005 Suzuki Reno. The airbag light is on all the time and has beenfor about a year. There is a technical service bulletin from Suzuki on the matter, so they realize it is a common problem on both the driver and passenger side. Suzuki will not repair it free of charge although it is a design fault. I would like a recall to fix the problem. A technical service bulletin only fixes what is potentially a dangerous problem, caused by bad design, at my expense. Here is the TSB from Suzuki component description: 1. Air bags:frontal:sensor/control module bulletin number: ts0501158 bulletin date: Jan 2008 vehicle: 2,006 Suzuki Reno summary: airbag light on; dtc b1378 (driver side airbag resistance too high) and/or dtc b1382 (passenger side airbag resistance too high). Forenza, sedan/wagon, Reno (rq420) 2005-2006. VIN(s) -6k425022. ( NHTSA item number - 10024195 ).
Since the purchase, my flat tire indicator lights. The front drivers tire and rear passenger tires need air about every two weeks. About 1 year after purchase the interior lights, passenger side rear lights went out. After replacing fuses and bulbs there is still no light. Not long after that, the passenger side airbag failure light came on. 2 months after purchase the purge valve had to be replaced twice.
Air bag lights repeatedly turn on even after recommended fixes. The current TSB out there is an out of pocket fix for the consumer in spite of issue while under warranty. Now that the vehicle is out of warranty it is cost prohibitive to continue "fixing" the airbag when the light comes back on a few days later. Two years of airbag issues and still not resolved.
The airbag light on my 2005 Suzuki Reno came on. . . After a $2,000. 00 estimate from the Suzuki dealer I complained to Suzuki headquarters and they fixed it at no charge to me but this may be happening to other Suzuki's and people may be paying to fix it.
Air bag light has been on almost continuously since October 2007 (vehicle purchased new in June 2006). Dealer in nevada checked vehicle October 2007 (mileage 20,788), found codes b1102 low battery voltage and b1378 drivers side resistance too high. Cleared codes, tightened connector under passenger seat (no cost); light was off for about a week then back on. Dealer advised I should just snug up the connector under passenger seat to resolve indicator light and I did this regularly for several years until light wouldn't go out anymore. March 2011 (mileage 62,751) dealer in washington checked car, found codes b1382 right side resistance and b1378 left front side resistance. Cleared codes, cleaned, tightened, and added stabilizer to connectors (charged $105); light was off about 2 days then back on. Air bag light has been on ever since (currently 94,950 miles as of November 18, 2014).
The air bag light and "passenger air bag disabled" light are on all the time. It originally appeared to be due to the passenger seat sensor that disables the right side air bag when it detects a weight under a certain limit (e. G. , so the air bag is deactivated if a child's car seat is there). The way we came to assume that it might be the sensor was if the person in the passenger seat would hop around or move around the seat and the light might eventually go out. Sometimes turning off and restarting the car would cause the light to turn off. Sometime it seemed the passenger could put-on, take-off, put-on the seat belt and that might work. But now it's on all the time no matter what (the car is at 90,000 miles). It was intermittent starting around 10,000. I took it in to the dealer and they replaced the car's battery - the theory being that perhaps the old battery didn't provide enough current (which doesn't make any sense since the battery isn't providing power while the engine is on. . . ). But by around 30,000 miles, the light started staying on all the time.
The contact owns a 2006 Suzuki Reno. When the contact started the vehicle, the air bag and engine warning indicators began to illuminate on the instrument panel continuously. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer where the air bag sensor was replaced. The failure recurred two weeks after the vehicle was repaired. The vehicle was not repaired a second time. The manufacturer was notified of the problem. The approximate failure mileage was 36,000. Updated 06/06/12 the consumer stated there is also a failure with the seat belt. The transmission failed 1 year after the vehicle was purchased. Updated 06/07/js.
