This is the best car I have ever owned. Very reliable and easy to repair. Mechanics will alsways take advantage because there are no many Suzuki around. But, you can do a decent job by yourself if you order spare parts. Is Suzuki back in Canada? They make reliable and less expensive cars. Thanks Suzuki, I ❤️ your cars!

this car is perfect for me except for two small problems. The steering wheel is not adjustable. so that when I'm driving I cannot see the clock on the dashboard. so I always have to shift around to be able to see what time it is. secondly, if you want to use the roof rack you have to unscrew the radio antenna. I'm afraid I'm going to lose it! other than that it's a great little four-wheel drive. I can carry all my stuff from home Depot inside it on top of it. it looks cute and it's great on gas.

The recalls are often the same on the Grand Vitara as the issues I have, or for newer models. The recalls don't seem to apply for the SX4 2008 . My Manual transmission went at 120. klms the car had 65 thousand when bought and it seems they found caulking already on the transmission case when it was repaired.Now the belt that runs everything from steering to heating at 131.,this is a dangerous situation as car can stop dead.(Idler pulleys tend to last quite some time. However, driving style and operating environment may affect part longevity. The majority of vehicles will surpass 100,000 miles before idler pulley replacement is needed.)I don't consider this to be a long time.Then the oil pressure switch the week before.
