2010 SUZUKI KIZASHI Engine Problems

TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE (TCM) FOR THE CVT, THE TCM MAY DETECT AN ABNORMALITY IN THE CVT PULLEY RATIO UNDER AS A RESULT OF THE UNUSUAL MOVEMENT OF THE STEPPER MOTOR. THE MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LIGHT (MIL) MAY ILLUMINATE AND THE CVT COULD GO INTO A FAIL SAFE MODE RESULTING IN THE VEHICLE LOSING ACCELERATION.

I DROVE THE CAR APPROXIMATELY 1.5 MILES AWAY WHERE THE VEHICLE CUT OFF AS I WAS MAKING A TURN INTO A BUSY INTERSECTION LEAVING ME STRANDED IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC. AFTER SEVERAL MORE WEEKS OF BEING AT THE DEALERSHIP I LEFT WITH A NEW TRANSMISSION ALONG WITH THE NEW MOTOR. 6 WEEKS LATER THE TRANSMISSION BROKE DOWN AGAIN WHEN I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE WITH MY DAUGHTER IN THE CAR.
