Three problems related to vehicle speed control have been reported for the 2004 Suzuki XL7. The most recently reported issues are listed below.

1 Vehicle Speed Control problem

Failure Date: 08/09/2017

Bought this vehicle from original owner. After noticing some issues & looking back over carfax, repair report, & recalls online, I called Suzuki. Gave the VIN# and was told a recall was done in 2004 by dealer. When asked about the other recalls, she said there was no other recalls. All paperwork I have has no indications of the recall being done. I see 3 recalls on this site as well. What should I do or who should I contact?.

2 Vehicle Speed Control problem

Failure Date: 09/08/2006

Brakes made loud grinding noise, have had brake pads/liners replace 3 times in the last several months. Problem will not resolve. Brake pedal becomes mushy and abs has failed several times. Seat belts lock and stay locked at the slightest braking pressure and/or vehicle speed and do not release for several minutes. This is a serious problem that no one seems to want to address.

3 Vehicle Speed Control problem

Failure Date: 09/30/2003

While driving on flat road, the vehicle did not accelerate over 50-60 mph. The dealership was unable to duplicate the problem. The consumer purchased the vehicle with what she thought was minor cosmetic problems then they started to get worse as time went on, there was a dragging which came from the rear interior, the seat belt holders rattled, the leather seats had sink holes where the batting was coming from the leather, and there was a loud roar coming from the engine.
