Campaign number 18v804000, suzuki has no plan to correct power steering issue. I had it fixed myself and sent suzuki a copy of the bill requesting repayment, denied because of a used part installed. I spoke with suzuki headquarters and the car dealership I bought the car from new, they were no help.
