I had my car repaired in a recall in Jan 2015 (its code is vl). After about one month I found sometimes it was difficult to move the stick out of park. It was a random issue so I didn't take it serious at that time. Recently the issue happens more frequently. I called Suzuki customer service on March 28, 2016 and they told me to have the car diagnosed at a local authorized dealer. I went to the dealer on the same day. The dealer told me the part that was replaced in the recall in Jan 2015 needs to be replaced again, but it already passed the warranty which is one year. I called the Suzuki customer service again and they gave me the same answer: they warranty on that part already expired. I just find on the natsa website Suzuki released a revised document (rcorrd-14v811-4872. Pdf) on Feb 18, 2015 saying they "have received reports of shifting difficulty in some Sx4 vehicles after the recall repair has been performed. " and they released a revised technical service bulletin (rcrit-14v811-3386. Pdf) on Feb 27, 2015. My car was repaired in Jan, 2015, and after that I did not recevie any notice about the revised technical service bulletin. I think the car issue I am having is due to they did not follow the revised technical service bulletin. And I think Suzuki should repair it at no charge. Thanks.
