| I have had problems with my 2006 suzuki verona for the past 2 1/2 years. we have owned if for almost 3 1/2. we took it back to the dealer just a year after owning it complaining of a clunking noise. all they did was update the software on it. they would not fix it unless a light was on. it would not generate a code back then, according to the dealership. now 2 1/2 years later, they say the transmission range sensor is bad. after reading several forums, it sounds like this happens a lot on this type of car and suzuki's in general. it is scheduled for repair next tuesday. | |||
