Hello, this is regarding recall vg/14v-464 for my 2010 suzuki kizashi that I received in a letter dated august 9, 2019 the nearest suzuki dealership is out of state and requires roundtrip traveling of approx 50 miles plus toll charges. I would like my mechanic at bd automotive to perform this service.
Looking to buy this car here in arizona, and this vin seems to match the vehicle...but doesn't come back with results when I plug vin # in to databases. Could you please chk vin [xxx] and tell me if this car is affected and if so, whether recalls were completed? Thank you.
While driving approximately 15 mph, the contact noticed a smoke odor from the radio speakers near the back seats of the vehicle. The contact pulled over and stopped the vehicle. The radio speaker in the backseat caught on fire, which spread to the entire vehicle. The vehicle was towed and deemed totaled.
Tl* the contact owns a 2012 (na) suzuki kazashi. While driving approximately 40 mph, the air bags deployed without warning or impact when the brake pedal was depressed. The vehicle was taken to a local dealer who stated that the vehicle must have crashed into something.
