All car makers had their fair shares of recalls....as long as your car don’t give you major headaches, you should be happy with what you own.

 

So far, I am still enjoying my Vitara!!

Mine is 4wd. The sound comes on only during hard acceleration, coming from under the car and to the rear.

When are you free to meet up? When we do, I will demo to you...

I just pumped SPC 98 and will monitor for the time being.

Thanks. I think with 98 or V-power the pickup is definitely better. But that's not the point. It's a Suzuki, there shouldn't be a restriction on petrol like this.

I don't feel a reduction in power when the sound comes on. I am just worried that this sound is a warning sign of something that is not right. But CM obviously can't figure it out and I am disappointed with them.

Any update on the rattling sound? My rattling sound still there, waiting for my next service

It's still there. I tried with one tank of 98 and I still hear the sound, it's softer and did not come on that easy. Now I am back to 95 and the sound is just went back to the same loudness and frequency I complained before.

So this means that their explanation of fuel type is rubbish. Short of writing a letter to their mgmt, I don't know what I can do now.

My previous Suzuki I can drive for 10 years, don't think this one can make it.

I tried all petrol type , still there. If write to management, u can include me also. Maybe more cars with similar problems, will have bigger impact and they will take up the issu else they treat as isolated case

Maybe we should meet and see hear if the sound is the same for both of us.

Honda Odyssey. Drove 9 years. Ok so far.

Air bag recall n seat recall no counted as issue? But Honda Odyssey is a good car though.

If still under warranty, need to insist they fix the issues. Sometimes they'll gv lame excuses like it's normal, or unable to replicate the issue etc. Hv to bang table until they get it done.

I'm starting to feel this.

If moving of normally or use sports mode no issue. But if i'm on auto mode and accelerate hard will feel the 'throw clutch' changing to gear 2.

Привет, какие-то bros или sis получили хороший гараж, чтобы рекомендовать для обслуживания vitara? Просто передайте мой сервис 50k ... Цена CM кажется слишком крутой ...

What city do you live in? If not far from Minnesota, I can advise one.
 
Why not like СM?

Thanks for the reply ; )

 

Price quoted from CM in Singapore is very high... at least 1 time more when i compare with my friends (not Vitara, but japanese cars like Honda Vezel and Nissan QQ).
