This Car Sucks — I HATED IT! Never buy this car. It is a total piece of crap. The transmission is sloppy and shifts too much. Cost of ownership is out of the norm. Everything breaks. Not even fun to drive! NEVER BUY IT!

Cons

mainenance varies depending on what goes out the car has multiple parts so its always a guessing game when buying replacement parts.

I Would Recommend The Car On Certin Points Other Areas Stay Away From It. — Its a good family car. Lots of cargo space. Seats are very comfortable great for long trips. The car is a low maintenance until something goes out on it. I have had to replace the cam shaft position sensor. I thought i could do it myself and it was just a pain. the mechanical design isnt the greatest tho. In order to change the spark plugs you need to remove the engine mount and jack the engine. which is a pain in the ass and can become a nice lump sum of pocket change. Another down side of the suzuki is the valve cover gasket needs to be replace about every two to three years if you get the stock part. They leak bad when the decide to crack. The upside of the car is it gets great gas mpg. I put 20.00 dollars in when gas was 3.69 for plus and it gave me a full tank. that is something i do enjoy about the car. Beside some things being difficult to work on, majority of the car maintance is a diy.
