general problems of the 2008 Suzuki SX4

Trying to get vehicle inspected and the inspection guy informed that there is a probably leak in the exhaust system causing loud noise. The noise could be heard in the car even when not hit heavy on the gas pedal. Although the vehicle is reasonable old, for 50k miles such breakage is exhaust is not expected. This could be a result of faulty equipment or misfitting. Basically I need to get it fixed before it can pass state inspection.

I have had this Sx4 since 3/1/11, aside from this particular problem, I have no other issues with the vehicle. Last spring, around may, I had the front lower control arms replaced. Only having this car for 2 years at the time, and here I am needing them replaced again. I have never had this problem with any prior vehicle. I love this car, I don't want to trade it in. I would feel guilty trading it in, and putting another family in this car, should something go terribly wrong. My husband and I debated what the culprit could be for the noises the car made from 15 mph to 70 mph (rock in a box) sound and the car shaking throughout the car, but also in the steering wheel. I didn't want to accept that the problem was the control arm again. So we replaced the stabilizer bar bushings. The mechanic that replaced the bushings said replacing the bushings were not going to solve the entire problem because the ball joints were done, they needed replaced. I also have been told by another mechanic rotating my tires, have said the same thing. Replacing the stabilizer bushings help the ( rock in a box) sound, but not the shakiness throughout the car and it sounds like the car is falling apart the way it rattles on the smoothest street here. Does this problem fall under any type of warranty or a recall introduction?.

Sx4 air bags recall number: 13v405000 recall date: 09/06/2013 problem summary: Suzuki motor of America, inc. (Suzuki) is recalling certain model year 2006-2011 grand vitara and 2007-2011 Sx4 vehicles. In the affected vehicles, over time, the OCS sensor mat installed in the front passenger seat may fail due to repeated flexing of the mat from use of the seat. As a result, during a crash necessitating deployment, the air bag will deploy regardless of whether the front seat occupant is an adult or a child. Consequence: air bag deployment with a child in the front passenger side seat increases the risk of injury to that child. Corrective action: Suzuki will notify owners and dealers will replace the front passenger seat cushion assembly (which includes the OCS sensor mat) free of charge. Sufficient quantities of parts are not currently available to fix all of the affected vehicles. Owners will be notified of the recall in October 2013 and will receive a second notification when parts are available to have their vehicle repaired. Owners may contact Suzuki at 1-800-934-0934.
