Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING I HEARD A LOUD "THUNK" SOUND AND THEN MY CAR WENT BASICALLY INTO NEUTRAL. HAD A CAR BEEN RIGHT BEHIND ME I WOULD HAVE BEEN REAR ENDED. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WENT ON AND THE TRANSMISSION RANGE SENSOR HAS TO BE REPLACED. THE SAME EXACT THING HAPPENED IN SEPTEMBER OF 2012 AND I HAD IT REPLACED THEN, ONLY 9 SHORT MONTHS AGO. WHEN SPEAKING WITH THE PARTS AND SERVICE FOLKS AT DAVID NORMAN SUZUKI I WAS INFORMED THAT THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE. HAD I BEEN ON THE HIGHWAY I COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED. DEFINITELY A SAFETY PROBLEM THAT WARRANTS A RECALL. *TR
