I purchased my xl7 luxury new in 2007 with only 368+ miles. Before I had driven the vehicle for 3 months, the stability control and traction control lights came on and I was forced to take the vehicle for service. Before my vehicle warranty expired, I had to replace the gas caps numerous times resulting in the replacement of my catalytic converter. Now before my vehicle reached 100,000 miles, I am forced to replace the electrical harness (or complete computer output). Pugmire lincoln mercury is the only dealership in my area that provides repairs for my vehicle. After the harness repair, the check engine light is back on, and the codes (in less than 3 months) reveal that codes: [p2099, p0157, p2272 and p2099] resulting that there is an oil leak, an o2 sensor problem and another catalytic fuel problem again. It is time for my 100,000 mile check-up, but I cannot get past the original problems. These conditions continue and I love my vehicle. I was using my vehicle for to and from work of less than 11 miles daily. I have driven as far west as san antonio, tx and north to baltimore md and south to jacksonville fl. My ABS light continues to come on and my oil light flashes to instruct me to cut off the motor and tighten my gas cap while in motion.

My SUV keeps shutting the stability control off for no reason everytime I scan the computer there is no codes and it just shut off randomly for no reason at all and suzuki dealerships say there is nothing wrong when there obviously is because when im driving on the city street and it just shuts it off while your driving it put you and the people in you car in a dangerous situation because in the progress of shutting that off the ABS goes off the transaction control goes off and the stability control stop working not safe at all.

Warnings: service stability control, service traction control, awd off, ABS. Intermittently appears and goes away. No rhyme or reason, just nerve racking. Steering on the vehicle is hard.

To begin, my moonroof leaked into the overhead lights in the cabin any time I washed the car. Had to take it in 3 times to get it fixed. Window seals were buckling and got those replaced by dealer - but continued to buckle. All stabilitrac lights have always been intermittent since I bought the car. Key fob worked intermittently around 85000 then the rear driver door would not respond to it. Replaced battery in fob and had to take it in to only have it diagnosed that the actuator in the door was going out. While I was turning a corner in my 2008 xl7, I heard a grinding/rattling noise that seemed to worsen at slower speeds and would go away as I accelerated through the turn around 90000 miles. Power steering felt tight, ABS light, check engine light, service traction control, awd off, stabil-trac light all came on...intermittently. Took it in for other repairs before warranty ran out and the dealership could not duplicate the issue/sound. At 95700 miles same thing started happening, took it to my mechanic and he could not duplicate the issue. At 103000 miles the noise/rattling/grinding is back in force. Took it to my mechanic, he was finally able to duplicate it, pulled multiple mis-fire codes p0300, p0301,p0305, & p0303. Replaced a weak battery, change the oil and diagnosed the timing chain/tensioner needed to be replaced. Called suzuki to explain that this had been happening for the last 15000 miles sporadically, finally got it diagnosed after the warranty had expired and they will not even recognize that this is a common problem with this model. Called dealership and the fix is around $3000. This is a prevalent recurring problem with the xl7 2007-2009. As many complaints as I have seen regarding this issue, knowing that if I continue to drive it like this that it could destroy the entire engine, suzuki should be issuing a recall and fixing this defective vehicle.

The air bag is malfunctioning, the lights kept coming on. The dealer I bought the vehicle from agreed to fix the problem if I purchased the vehicle. Well it was too expensive so the ended replacing the pass. Seat airbag module with a used seat from another used vehicle. The steering wheel also makes a whinning noise when turning the wheel. The dealer told me it was the rubber rubbing against the cover. I found out from a ex-employee of the dealer that it was the steering column needing replacement. Since then every other owner I have spoken with says their steering wheel is the same. So it must be a faulty steering column in all these vehicles. Back to the airbag, the following months since getting my airbag fixed, the dash lights no longer came on in the vehicle. I did, however, notice that the indicator light would sometimes say off and sometimes say on if I had a front seat passenger. Several months following this, I started having a problem with my vehicle going dead. I took the cook to have it inspected, everytime I was told that the battery was fine as was the alternator. I started driving watching the voltage meter. Finally, I replaced the battery. I no longer have a problem with the car dying on me, but I do notice that the vehicle voltage still fluctuates from 12.3 to 14.3. When the fluctuation occurs, nothing has changed as far as running extra accessories etc. Now my traction service light, stability control light, ABS light and service airbag light are all coming on. Researching I have found online from numerous message boards and owners that this is a common occurrence and when repeatedly reported to manufacturer there is nothing being done. Examples are the lights coming on, air bags deploying while driving, vehicle acc.(radio and A/C controls) not working and so on. Is there a way you can investigate this with suzuki?
