ON FEBRUARY 4, 2011, I WAS DRIVING BETWEEN 10-15MPH ON A VERY ROUGH ROAD DUE TO THE CITY OF TULSA NOT CLEARING THE ROADS AFTER 12 INCHES OF SNOW. ALL OF THE SUDDEN ALL SIDE AIR BAGS WENT OFF. THAT DAY I DROVE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP. I DID NOT GET IT BACK UNTIL APRIL 23, 2011. I WAS GIVING EVERY EXCUSE IN THE BOOK ON ABOUT EVERY DAY ON WHY IT WAS TAKING SO LONG TO GET FIXED. AN INSURANCE CHECK WAS ISSUED TO THE REPAIR SHOP FEBRUARY 18TH. THE PARTS WERE NOT ORDERED UNTIL AROUND THE 28TH. I WAS TOLD THEY COULD NOT FIND THE SEAT BELTS AND I WAS ASKED TO TRY TO FIND SOME ONLINE. ONCE I PROVIDED TWO SITES TO THE REPAIR SHOP THEY CLAIMED THEY CAN ONLY ORDER FROM SUZUKI. MY WIFE INFORMED THE DEALERSHIP SHE WAS GOING TO REPORT THIS TO THE LOCAL...
I HAVE A 2007 SUZUKI XL7 LIMITED THAT WAS BOUGHT BRAND NEW AND HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING SOME ISSUES THAT I HAVE NEVER HAD WHILE OWNING TWO OTHER SUZUKI SUV'S. ON JUNE 24TH, 2010, MY DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING IN TRAFFIC AT 32 MPH WHEN THE SIDE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. THERE WAS NO IMPACT TO THE VEHICLE. SHE DID NOT HIT ANYTHING AND NOBODY HIT HER. SHE WAS NOT DRIVING ERRATIC NOR IRRESPONSIBLY AND THIS WAS CONFIRMED BY A MOTORCYCLE POLICE WHO WAS OBSERVING THE TRAFFIC AT THE TIME THIS HAPPENED. MY CAR IS STILL UNDER WARRANTY, SO I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE SUZUKI DEALERSHIP AND REPORTED THE INCIDENT. THEY STATED THAT THEY HAD NEVER HEARD OF THAT HAPPENING AND INSINUATED THAT THE CAR HAD TO HAVE BEEN DRIVEN RECKLESSLY FOR THE DEPLOYMENT TO HAPPEN. SUZUKI STATED THEY COULD NOT DO ANYTHING UNTIL THE MODULE HAD BEEN TESTED, TO DETERMINE WHAT TOOK...
ON APRIL 18TH, 2010, MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING ON A STRETCH OF FLAT CITY STREET GOING APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH. A LOUD BANG WENT OFF IN THE CAR AND WHITE POWDER DISPERSED THROUGHOUT THE CAR. HE PULLED OVER AND NOTED THAT ALL THE CURTAIN AIRBAGS HAD DEPLOYED. UPON INSPECTING THE CAR, NO DAMAGE WAS NOTED. HE DID NOT REMEMBER HITTING A POT HOLE OR CURB. HE DROVE THE CAR TO WHERE WE WERE STAYING (WE WERE VISITING FAMILY IN ANOTHER STATE) AND CALLED OUR INSURANCE COMPANY. GEICO CAME OUT TWO DAYS LATER, TOOK PICS AND DENIED THE CLAIM DUE TO NO IMPACT. HAD NO MONEY TO GET VEHICLE TOWED RIGHT AWAY SO IT SAT FOR A MONTH WHILE WE FILED A COMPLAINT THROUGH THE DEPARTMENT OF INSURANCE. WHEN WE RECEIVED A LETTER FROM INSURANCE STATING THEY WOULD REOPEN THE CLAIM, WE HAD IT TOWED TO A SUZUKI DEALER. DEALER CLAIMS THEY...
WE HAVE A 2007 SUZUKI XL-7. THE SIDE AND BACK AIRBAGS DEPLOYED FOR NO REASON. WE HAVE A POLICE REPORT STATING NO ACCIDENT OR DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE. SUZUKI WILL NOT TAKE ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR THEIR PRODUCT, GEICO CANNOT DO ANYTHING UNLESS THEY GET A WRITTEN STATEMENT FROM SUZUKI WHO REFUSES TO TALK TO THEM AND NOW ME. THIS IS A WARRANTY ISSUE SINCE THE SUV IS A 2007 AND HAS ONLY 27,000 MILES. PLEASE HELP. *TR
TRAVELING AT 45-50 MPH ON A FLAT ROAD, CLEAR CONDITIONS. HEARD A LOUD BANG INSIDE VEHICLE, 4 SIDE CURTAIN (ROLLOVER) AIRBAGS DEPLOYED SPONTANEOUSLY. NO IMPACT WITH ANYTHING. HORRIBLE SMELL INSIDE VEHICLE. FELT A BURNING ON MY FOREHEAD. DON'T RECALL PULLING OFF ROAD. *TR
SIDE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE STREET AT APPROXIMATELY 30 MILES AN HOUR. THERE WAS NO IMPACT WITH ANYTHING. NO ROUGH ROAD OR POTHOLES, IT WAS A STRAIGHT STRETCH OF ROAD, ON A 4 LANE ROAD. THE NOISE WAS SO LOUD IT ALMOST MADE ME DEAF. THE FUMES WERE AWFUL. I ALMOST WRECKED TRYING TO PULL OUT OF THE STREET. I DID CALL THE POLICE WHOM WROTE AN INCIDENT REPORT, BECAUSE THEY HAD NEVER SEEN THIS HAPPEN BEFORE. *TR
