This vehicle should be recalled. It is a lemon!! I bought my Suzuki 2 years ago used and have had nothing but problems. I have had the timing chain replaced. After I get gas it sputters and struggles starting. The traction control light comes on and the engine power is reduced. Eventually it just stops running. I could not drive my Suzuki most of the winter because of that and no one knows how to fix it. The sunroof and windshield leak. I have had a mechanic look at it a couple of times and it is still leaking. The passenger air bag light doesn't work. The turn signal doesn't work. Now my speedometer stopped working. It is stuck at 80 when it is parked and then goes up from there when I am driving it. Who knows what else is going to stop working. I am so frustrated, there are too many problems with this vehicle. It is unsafe!.
Randomly the "service passenger air bag" message is displayed and passenger air bag light goes on and off. Service tire monitoring system message randomly displayed.
Tl- the contact owns a 2007 Suzuki Xl7. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the vehicles passenger side air bag warning indicator illuminated on the vehicles instrument panel. The contact stated that the failure would occur intermittently. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that the flexibility of the sensor would make the sensor read the passengers weight intermittently. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 125,225. Wh.
The air bag indicator came on and then I noticed that the passenger side air bag light stays in the off position. It does not matter how much weight is in the seat. I have a friend that weighs only 120 pounds, plus two full grown boys who weight between 130 and 200 pounds. It does not matter who sits in the seat or how much they weigh the air bag indicator always shows it as off. I called the dealer and was told that the first fee would be around 150. 00 to determine the problem and then I could get a price for the repair. This is crazy because I have researched and found many others with the same problem. I also see that gm is recalling other vehicles for the same issue but not the Xl7. I have had issues with the purge value and now the air bags.
Service passenger airbag light came on and won't go off.
The airbag light on the passenger seat is illuminating when occupied. According to Suzuki the sensing unit are defective and need to replaced. 2007 Suzuki Xl7 air bags service bulletin 276881 NHTSA: action number: 10032752 service bulletin number: 276881 see report date: Dec 01, 2009component: air bags summary: Suzuki: technicians may encounter an intermittent or current air bag light on in the instrument panel with dtc(s) b0012, b0013, b0014, b0016, b0019, b0020, b0022, b0023, b0026, b0033, b0040, b0042 or b0044 set in the sdm (sensing and diagn.
The air bag is malfunctioning, the lights kept coming on. The dealer I bought the vehicle from agreed to fix the problem if I purchased the vehicle. Well it was too expensive so the ended replacing the pass. Seat airbag module with a used seat from another used vehicle. The steering wheel also makes a whinning noise when turning the wheel. The dealer told me it was the rubber rubbing against the cover. I found out from a ex-employee of the dealer that it was the steering column needing replacement. Since then every other owner I have spoken with says their steering wheel is the same. So it must be a faulty steering column in all these vehicles. Back to the airbag, the following months since getting my airbag fixed, the dash lights no longer came on in the vehicle. I did, however, notice that the indicator light would sometimes say off and sometimes say on if I had a front seat passenger. Several months following this, I started having a problem with my vehicle going dead. I took the cook to have it inspected, everytime I was told that the battery was fine as was the alternator. I started driving watching the voltage meter. Finally, I replaced the battery. I no longer have a problem with the car dying on me, but I do notice that the vehicle voltage still fluctuates from 12. 3 to 14. 3. When the fluctuation occurs, nothing has changed as far as running extra accessories etc. Now my traction service light, stability control light, abs light and service airbag light are all coming on. Researching I have found online from numerous message boards and owners that this is a common occurrence and when repeatedly reported to manufacturer there is nothing being done. Examples are the lights coming on, air bags deploying while driving, vehicle acc. (radio and a/c controls) not working and so on. Is there a way you can investigate this with Suzuki?.
