| I am the original owner of a 2007 suzuki xl7. due to disabilities in the family i put several miles on this vehicle. from the begining i have several issues w/this vehicle. because of suzuki's lack of concern/interest i have decided to make formal complaints about the safety issues today. if i was to list all problems with this vehicle i would be here all day. out of 4 passenger windows we currently have only 2 functioning. when diagnosed i was told that one window was the motor and the other was electrical. after paying $76.00 to the dealership to identify the electrical problem they told me that they would need at least an additional hour (additional $76.00) to find the wiring problem. i declined. i have made several calls to suzuki, about their product, to which they have replied i have too many miles on my car and they will do nothing for me. also, the latches that fold the middle seats down often stick. at any given time you can go to pull one up so as to fold the middle seats and they will not budge! we have already had this issue addressed way back in the begining of owning the vehicle. when we brought it back in to have the multiple issues addressed (something suzuki suggested we do to see if we could help) we were told that they would need to be taken apart to see what the problem was. for a cost, of course. we do not let our daughters ride in the third row seating for fear that if something happened they could not get out!! suzuki's rep (who i was told was on vacation and didn't know when he could consider our issues) quickly emailed back to the dealer too many miles, not going to help. i cannot even begin to afford the multiple problems w/this car and the value has decreased so that trading it in is just not an option. my concern is that i drive my children in this car daily and everytime i hope and pray nothing major happens. my children now call the car the lemon or the beater. as they too are well aware of all the problems w/the vehicle | |||

| In 2007 we purchased a new 2007 xl7 suzuki. it now has 14,000 miles and is falling apart. first the luggage rack came loose- never had used it- i fixed this my self. next the vanity mirror on the sun visor broke off. now the drivers side door handle has falling off. all of this and every couple of weeks the check engine light comes on for a few days then goes off- the gas cap is not loose ! for the cost this car retails for you think it would last more than 1 or 2 years. *tr | |||

| Tl* the contact owns a 2007 suzuki xl7. while the vehicle was parked the contact noticed the driver and passenger side floor board were wet due to water leaking from underneath the dash board. there was also water inside the front interior lighting cover on the roof of the vehicle. the vehicle was taken to the dealer for diagnostic testing. the technician stated the air conditioner lines were clogged and had to be flushed in order to repair the failure. after the vehicle was repaired, the failure continued to occur. the vehicle was not repaired. the approximate failure mileage was 100,000. | |||
