2007 Suzuki Forenza consumer reviews

Good car, simple, robust, easy to work on. Have had about 1 or two motor swaps though and a couple of clutches. Otherwise good car nothing special.

It is a blast to drive! Mine has the manual transmission and it is very fun, although I hear the automatic stinks. Wish the MPG was better, only has 42K on it. I would not recommend it for someone who doesn’t work on cars, maintenance is very frequent.

they sold me a car that had 5000+ dollars worth of repairs and didn’t mention a single thing. Some of the issues made it dangerous to even drive home.

I hardly ever write reviews, but I couldn't hold back on sharing my bad experiences of the car i tolerated for the past 5 years, I figured 'xxxx, I could help save someone from the pending doom this car will bring if purchased somewhere'. Wow, so where do I begin? Well, for starters, the car was purchased with 135k miles on it and lasted me to 193k. It was deemed as a reliable vehicle I'd use all through college perhaps even few more years after that. The amount of money that has went into this vehicle for repairs has surpassed the actual purchasing price on it till this day has repairs that still need to be done which will cost an arm and a leg. I can vividly recall the day I missed my pharmacy school interview all because this piece of xxxx car decided to have it's timing belt break on the highway, which also caused internal damage to the engine and bent valves. This repair alone costed me well over $1,000. If you even have the slightest interest in this brand of vehicle, please RECONSIDER ASAP.

I bought this car with a blown head gadget and its been nothing but trouble ever since. It is ALWAYS breaking down. Just 2 days ago I was on the freeway and the transmission position switch stopped working. 70 miles an hour and all of a sudden the car stops working??? xxx?? DO NOT BUY THIS CAR WHATEVER YOU DO! The transmission sucks, the head gadget has blown twice since I bought it, and not because I'm hard on the car. Acceleration sucks, and pretty much everything that can go wrong in a car has gone wrong in it. Just don't buy ANYTHING suzuki. Worst decision of my LIFE.

I drive this car petal to the metal, repair any weakness and very happy motor got 157000 miles and just now breaking motor in.

I got my car about a month and a half ago. And I m satisfied for the price I paid (5K) when I bought it she had 118000 miles now she has 122k I guess I drive alot. Gas mileage could definately be better. And the acceleration definately could be improved. Braking also. But overall if you're looking for a decent car to get you where your going Its not a bad choice. I love my stereo/Aux/cd player and I love the gage cluster. Cruise control is very easy to use And I also feel pretty safe driving it. Looking forward to taking her on a trip soon.

I bought my 2006 Suzuki Forenza used with just over 20k on it. Seemed like a good car at first but had two recalls on it and a host of electrical issues. In the two years that I owned it I probably spent around $3,000 in repairs, not counting regular maintenance. It continually had odd tire wear despite two alignments. This year I had something go wrong with the car literally every month, ranging from having to replace a $20 headlight to a $900 clutch and hydraulic replacement. Nothing on the car is standard, I spent more on the battery then any car or truck I've ever owned. The constant breakdowns, electrical malfunctions, and generally poor performance led me to ditch it even though we still owed money on it. The blue book value had plummeted so much that we were still upside down on the car even though we had paid off half our loan. They look like great cars with lots of options for the money, but I could have had a much nicer car if I had taken our monthly payment and average monthly repair bill and put that towards a car instead.

I bought a suzuki forenza as my first car, and i loved it. It got me from point a to point b. I didn't do a lot of traveling with it, and that was what it was perfect for. It doesn't have a lot of fancy features, which is good for it being a first car for your child.

this car has been good to me.I have a manual and it is kind of loud,but look at the price its just a cheap little car to ride in for about three years.People this car should offer more features but it wasn't built by BMW.
