TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2005 SUZUKI VERONA. AFTER SHUTTING OFF THE ENGINE, FLAMES STARTED TO EMIT FROM THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. THE FIRE DEPARTMENT WAS CONTACTED AND THE FLAMES WERE EXTINGUISHED.

MY WIFE WAS TRAVELING FROM HOME WHEN HER 2005 SUZUKI VERONA JUST STARTED STALLING AND IT CUT OFF. IT CUT OFF WITHOUT NOTICE OR WARNING. SHE ATTEMPTED TO RESTART CAR AND WHEN DOING SO THE CAR DID NOT START. THEN SHE TRIED AGAIN IT STARTED AND DROVE IT BACK HOME WITH THE AIRBAG LIGHT ON AND SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED. I THEN HAD THE SPARK PLUGS REPLACED AND FIXED THE CORRODED BATTERY TERMINAL. I DROVE THE CAR ON 10/29/2014 AT 2:00AM IN THE MORNING HEADED TO WORK AND IT WAS JUST HARD TO ACCELERATE THEN IT WOULD SURGE, THE RPMS WOULD GET REALLY HIGH AND THE CAR WOULD ACT AS THOUGH IT WANTS TO CUT OFF! THERE IS A RECALL ON THE LIGHTS OF THESE VEHICLES BUT THEY HAVEN'T HAD THEM SENT OR REQUESTED TO BE FIXED. I HAVE READ WHERE THERE IS NO FIXING TO THESE CARS AND THAT...

THE CAR IN QUESTION 2005 SUZUKI VERONA STALLS WHEN SLOWING DOWN OR COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP, SOME TIME IT START RIGHT UP, SOME TIME IT DOESN'T. SOME TIME IT STARTS UP AND SHUTS DOWN IMMEDIATELY.WHEN THE CAR STALL YOU LOSE ALL CONTROL, STEERING WHEEL LOCKS UP. TOOK IT TO A SHOP NO CODE CAME UP , LOOKING AT RECALLS NOW. *TR
