My 2004 suzuki verona currently has 102,000 miles on it, but started hesitating and stalling at 50,000 miles. Upon stopping at an intersection, the accelerator could be pressed to the floor and the vehicle would hesitate for several seconds and then surge forward. It would also stall at intersections at times. The check engine light would light at times, but not always. The local dealership began addressing this issue at 50,000 miles and followed the repairs approved by the suzuki rep. This LED to the vehicle being in for the same issue at least a half dozen times after the initial repair. Suzuki continued to approve partial repairs, but never approved the complete repair of the issue. This resulted in a recurrence as recently june of 2010, and once again partial repairs were approved. Once the vehicle passed the 100,000 mark in september, the issue occurred again, but suzuki refused any responsibility to further address the issue which left the vehicle un-drivable. The vehicle is currently at 102,000 miles and suzuki has failed to ever correct the issue, but now will do nothing because the vehicle is out of warranty. Suzuki continued to make partial repairs to my vehicle although they realized that their efforts were failing to correct the issue, and began to do full engine replacements of other veronas with the same issue.

What owners say
Dt: consumer had to put a new engine in the car. The check engine light came on before they replaced the engine. The engine light came on 4 times on after they replaced the engine. They replaced some of the sensors. The car was jerking and cutting off every now and then. The consumer noticed the car was riding differently. The ignition has a buzzing sound. They were supposed to fix the tachometer. The air conditioner doesn't work. *ak the drivers side window would continue go down. Smoke was emitting from the exhaust.
I recently purchased a new suzuli verona. I whad put l;ess that 2000 miles on the vehicle when the vehicle lost power (while I was driving on the interstate). I had to pull off to the side of the road and call for a tow truck. My vehicle was towed back to the dealer and upon their inspection, I had a complete failure of the engine which required a brand new engine to be put in my vehicle. I have asked suzuli to replace my car instead of giving me back the one I purchased 4 weeks ago. Still no answer. I would have never expected a complete engine failure on a brand new vehicle I owned less than a month with less than 2000 miles on it.
