Seat belts: front: buckle assemblyReported July 24, 2007 · 75,697 vehicles affected
What is wrong
On certain passenger vehicles, the front seat belt tongue will not latch into the buckle and, in rare cases, even the locked tongue will pop out by low stretching force. If the buckle does not latch completely, the buckle could release without pressing the release button.
Risk
These buckle malfunctions, which could prevent a person from using the seat belt or could cause the seat belt to fail to function as designed, can increase the risk of injury in a crash.
Remedy
Dealers will replace the front driver and passenger seat belt buckles with the improved part free of charge. The recall began on august 31, 2007. Owners may contact suzuki at 1‑800‑934‑0934.

I keep having to stick a key in my shift lock just to get the car out of park and has been occurring for a while now. The part you put the seat belt into when you put it on keeps sticking down so you can't wear a seat belt sometimes and I have had to replace my transmission range sensor about every 3 months since I have had the car which is ridiculous.

We just bought this car in august 2012. Since then my seat belt button turned on and took it to the suzuki dealer and they fixed it. Also the passenger air bag also and they fixed it. Then took it to the dealer to get the oil changed and they said I had a radiator leak ( I wonder how true was that sometimes) repaired it and it cost $400.... Now when I was driving the car check engine light turned on and now it was the gas cap that needed to be replaced!!! Wth so we replaced that part. Now after we fix that, guess what also starts happening the car just starts to slow down and again check engine light turns on!!! We take it to get a diagnosis and it gives us p0705 p0700 and that now is the transmission range sensor!!! This is crazy!! Hopefully nothing else will go wrong..... I feel that suzuki should have a recall on this transmission range sensor especially.. As I see...many people are going through this and people should be compensated for the money that we all have wasted and frustration we are all going through.... Suzuki needs to fix this problem...
