Owner-reported complaints filed with NHTSA, grouped by component

Data refreshed

Owner complaintsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

GOT MY SECOND SAFETY RECALL NOTICE IN THE MAIL AND WENT TO THE SUZUKI DEALER TODAY ON 7-12-16 AND WAS TOLD THAT IT WOULD BE 2 MONTHS OR SO BEFORE THEY CAN PREFORM THE RECALL. WHEN I GOT THE FIRST NOTICE IT WAS STILL WINTER TIME SO DID NOT GO TO THE DEALER FOR IT. WHAT HAPPENS IF I DRIVE THE SCOOTER ? WILL IT CATCH ON FIRE ? QUESTIONS DEALER COULD NOT ANSWER. I ASK WHY RECALL WILL TAKE SO LONG AND DEALER TOLD ME "YOU ARE NOT MY ONLY CUSTOMER" VERY DISAPPOINTED ON HOW THEY ARE HANDLING THIS.

SINCE BRAND NEW, THE SPEEDOMETER HAS A 8-10% ERROR AT HIGHWAY SPEED VERIFIED BY GPS. SUZUKI CLAIMS THIS IS NORMAL AND WITHIN THEIR STANDARDS. THE ODOMETER DOES READ THE CORRECT MILEAGE, SO THIS IS A DEFECT THAT THEY ENGINEERED INTO THE BIKE, AND REFUSE TO ACKNOWLEDGE AND REPAIR. I HAVE FOUND OUT THAT THIS PROBLEM IS COMMON TO ALL 400 AND 650 SUZUKI BERGMANS. OUR STATE OF WISCONSIN EVEN HAS A LAW THAT PROHIBITS DEFECTIVE SPEEDOMETERS SO SUZUKI IS IN VIOLATION OF STATE OF WISCONSIN STATUTE. *TR

Too few reports in this category for a page of its own — they appear in the full complaint list.

Higher-selling and older vehicles accumulate more reports. Counts are not failure rates and are not directly comparable between vehicles that sold in very different numbers.
