Consumer Description

VEHICLE SLIPS OUT OF DRIVE WHEN ACCELERATING WHICH CAUSES IT TO LOSE POWER DURING HIGHWAY DRIVING. SEEMS TO JUMP TO NEUTRAL. LOSS OF SPEED AND AT THE SAME TIME THE ENGINE WILL REV AND RPM'S WILL INCREASE. THIS HAPPENS MOSTLY ON HIGHWAY, SOMETIMES ON STREETS. THIS NEVER HAPPENS WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A STOP. THIS HAPPENED FOR WEEKS WITHOUT A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT INDICATOR ON. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WILL ONLY OCCUR WHEN REVERSING. MECHANIC SAID THE ISSUE (P0700 AND P0705) INDICATES A TRANSMISSION SENSOR ISSUE WHICH IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF SUZUKI MESSAGE FORUMS AND OTHER COMPLAINTS ON THIS ISSUE ON THE INTERNET. I CONTACTED SUZUKI AMERICAN HEADQUARTERS AND THEY CLAIM TO HAVE NO KNOWLEDGE OF THIS ISSUE. THIS IS A HEAVILY HAZARDOUS ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BEFORE SOMEONE, HOPEFULLY NOT MYSELF, DIES. *TR
