Consumer Description

THE STEERING WHEEL MAKES A RUBBING SOUND WHEN TURNING BACK AND FORTH. I HAD IT FIXED ONCE WHILE STILL UNDER WARRANTY. WENT AWAY FOR A WHILE BUT NOW I'M AT 101,000 MILES AND IT'S BACK. UNFORTUNATELY I'M NOT UNDER WARRANTY ANYMORE, SO THIS REPAIR WILL HAVE TO BE OUT OF POCKET. DISAPPOINTED, HAD I KNOWN THAT I WAS GETTING A SUZUKI WITH GM PARTS I WOULD HAVE NEVER CONSIDERED BUYING IT. I HAD A 2002 SUZUKI XL7 AND NEVER HAD A PROBLEM WITH IT. ANOTHER PROBLEM THAT I ENCOUNTER ON MY VEHICLE IS THAT IT BURNS WAY TOO MUCH OIL. THE OIL CHANGES COME AROUND ALOT SOONER THAT THE INDICATOR DISPLAYS ON THE PANEL. DEALERSHIP HAS NO EXPLANATION FOR IT. *TR
