NHTSA Complaint #10170838 — 2006 SUZUKI FORENZA

I PURCHASED A 4 DOOR 2006 SUZUKI FORENZA AND ON THE NEXT MORNING JUST A DAY AFTER I PURCHASED MY CAR I PUT THE KEY IN THE IGNITION AND THE CAR WOULD NOT START. I TRIED AGAIN AND THE CAR STARTED TO SHAKE LIKE IT WAS HAVING A SEIZURE. I LET IT SIT FOR ABOUT 5 MINUTES BEFORE IT STARTED. WHEN I TOLD THE DEALERSHIP OF WHAT HAPPEN I WAS TOLD IT''S A NEW CAR AND I JUST HAD TO BREAK-IT-IN. EVERY MORNING THE CAR WOULD NOT START AFTER SITTING OVER NIGHT. ADDITIONALLY WHEN I DRIVE I WOULD EXPERIENCE SOME DELAYS FROM THE TRANSMISSION, WHEN I ACCELERATE THE CAR WOULD JERK. THE LAST TIME I HAD TO GET THE MY CAR TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. I WAS TOLD THE PROBLEM WAS A RE-PROGRAMMING ERROR. THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT DID WHAT WAS CALLED A PASS THROUGH RE-PROGRAMMING HOWEVER THIS DID NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM. I TOOK THE CAR IN ON SEVERAL OCCASION BECAUSE OF THE SAME PROBLEM. THE LAST INCIDENT HAPPENED ON 9/18/06 AND MY CAR IS STILL BEING TESTED BY THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT AT THE STAR SUZUKI DEALERSHIP AT 1890 DOGWOOD DRIVE IN CONYERS, GA AND THEY ARE UNABLE TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM.. *NM
