Consumer Description

I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN OUT OF NO WHERE MY CAR JERKED AND SLOWED SPEED. I ALMOST GOT REAR ENDED. I THEN TRIED TO ACCELERATE AND IT DRUG. INSTEAD OF CATCHING BACK UP TO SPEED IT TOOK A MINUTE TO REACH THE SPEED OF WHAT WAS POSTED. AND SINCE THEN ITS BEEN VERY HARD TO DRIVE. I TOOK IT TO SHOP THEY SAID I NEED A NEW TRANSMISSION RANGE SENSOR. THEY ALSO SAID THIS IS A VERY COMMON ISSUE WITH SUZUKI FORENZA. BUT ITS VERY DANGEROUS I DO FEEL THAT THIS SHOULD QUALIFY FOR A RECALL. FOR A REFERENCE THE SUZUKI DEALER SALES THE TRANSMISSION RANGE SENSOR FOR $38.99 AND THE MECHANIC CHARGED $25.00 LABOR. *TR
