Suzuki Kizashi problems

suzuki logo

The Suzuki Kizashi is a mid-size car manufactured by Japanese automaker Suzuki. It was unveiled in the United States on July 30, 2009. The Kizashi went on sale in Japan on October 21, 2009, in North America on December 1, 2009, and in Australia and New Zealand on May 11, 2010. It is the first mid-size Suzuki automobile sold in the Australian market. In February 2011, the Kizashi became available to the Indian market. The car was also available in European markets.

In December 2013, Suzuki announced that the Kizashi would be gradually discontinued in global markets, and would not get a successor. In December 2014, the production of the car ceased in the Sagara plant. Despite a good technical record, the car had suffered from poor sales because of the global financial crisis and Suzuki's withdrawal from the American and Canadian markets in 2013 and 2014, respectively.

Etymology

Kizashi (In kanji: 兆) is a Japanese word which means "something great is coming", "omen", "sign", or "warning".

  • Date Complaint: 2024-09-13
  • VIN: JS2RF9A32C6
  • Components: POWER TRAIN
  • Summary: I bought the vehicle in a dealer, the vehicle came with serious mechanical failures which, when purchasing it, asked the owner what problems the vehicle actually had, which responded that it could have a fault in the vehicle sensor, which is normal in vehicles of that brand. . The next day we took the vehicle to the inspection report which showed damage to the gearbox. He recommends that I go back to the dealer and ask for a refund of the money or change of vehicle, since the owner omitted the true fault of the vehicle, I ask him the return or exchange and there was a refusal to return the money and change the vehicle, leaving me with a newly purchased unused vehicle, it was explained to the owner that the vehicle does not pass emissions. The vehicle cannot be fixed since it is a discontinued brand of vehicle and there are no spare parts.
Suzuki Kizashi 2010
  • Date Of Incident: 2024-01-25
  • Date Complaint: 2024-01-25
  • VIN: JS2RE9A5XA6
  • Components: AIR BAGS,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
  • Summary: I have received multiple recall notifications for problems with air bag on the passenger side, and a fuel tank that Suzuki says may crack. It would be great to have these things taken care of, but the repair providers that Suzuki has authorized are both 3 HOURS away! That means 6 hours total driving time, which is quite unreasonable. Does the NHTSA have any authority to either 1) get Suzuki to authorize a shop a reasonable distance from me, or, 2) have Suzuki reimburse me for recall repairs done at a local facility? I have called Suzuki myself, but they are extremely unhelpful. They made their money when they sold the car, and seem to be extremely unwilling to promote any lasting good will.

Suzuki Kizashi 2012
  • Date Of Incident: 2022-08-27
  • Date Complaint: 2022-09-26
  • VIN: JS2RF9A39C6
  • Components: FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
  • Summary: There is/are recalls on this vehicle regarding the fuel tank and vacuum lines on the fuel filler neck assembly, which causes check engine warnings that indicate "evap emissions" readouts, leaks during refills, interior gas fumes, and potential explosions. This car is currently leaking fuel during refills (and only during refills), has frequent interior gas fumes, and is also having check engine light evap emissions readouts. On 09/12/22 I contacted Suzuki Motor USA regarding the issue because I had learned of the recalls specific to these issues. Customer Service informed me that the recall work on the vehicle had already been completed and said I would have to pay for further repairs, since the recall work was not guaranteed. Recall work not guaranteed? Even though the symptoms I am experiencing are the exact same problems that initiated the recall. Said vehicle is garage parked and shows no signs of rust or deterioration of rubber or metal. Therefore, I am convinced that the recall repair work was insufficient, improperly completed, or involved defective replacement parts. I am seeking assistance to make Suzuki "properly" complete the recall work on this vehicle.

Latest negative Suzuki Kizashi car reviews

  1. Casimir Hill 2025-01-05

    Vehicle year: 2013

    This car was one of the first to have push-to-start technology, which was still being developed at the time. While I owned this car, I faced some frustrating moments when the dashboard error code caused the on/off engine button to malfunction, resulting in the car not starting. However, apart from this minor issue, I loved this car. Unfortunately, after just three months of owning it, the entire transmission failed. The cost of repairing it, including sourcing a used one, was more than what I had paid for the car, so it was essentially totaled. I have owned cars with conventional automatic transmissions my whole life and have never had a transmission problem. This was my first CVT car, and within three months, the transmission failed. If CVTs are not properly maintained, they can fail. I have given this car a one-star review for its operating issues, and it is now sitting in a junkyard. It is a shame because if this car had a normal automatic transmission, I am sure the little 4-cylinder motor would have run just fine for ages. I loved the little button that allowed me to switch from FWD to AWD, the sound system, the seats, and the styling. Beware of the CVT version of this car.

  2. Dorian Hill 2024-11-19

    Vehicle year: 2011

    On our way to a day trip 160 miles from home, our 10-day-old car with only 700 miles on it started experiencing issues with gear shifting and high RPMs at low speeds. Despite trying manual mode, the car continued to malfunction and eventually the gas pedal stopped working altogether. We quickly contacted Roadside Assistance and remained confident that the issue would be resolved. Although the closest tow truck was 45 miles away, we remained calm and collected throughout the situation.

  3. Cyril Simonis 2024-02-13

    Vehicle year: 2011

    This car is great, but Suzuki needs to stand behind all of its work in its warranty. Despite having owned the vehicle for less than two months and not having driven it on a dirt road, it already has numerous paint chips and scratches from rocks. The paint quality is unacceptable. I took it to the dealership where I purchased it, which was 2 1/2 hours away, and the service manager took pictures of every chip. However, even after showing the evidence, Suzuki refused to consider it a paint issue and denied coverage under the warranty. While I still love the car, it is disappointing that the outside appearance is not up to par.

    This car is amazing! I couldn't find anything wrong with it. The design is turning heads and the steering ratio is fantastic. The AWD system is like no other, even better than the Subaru which I owned three of before. It handles sharp turns like a dream, just like the Evo but without the high price tag. The snow handling is also impressive. Mine is the Metallic Black and it looks very handsome. It's time for everyone to join the world's love affair with this car. The power is perfect and I don't need more horsepower, especially since it gets a surprising 36 MPG on the highway (I was shocked since AWD is listed for 29 MPG). I love the leather and the classy Audi interior. You can tell that every part used is of high quality, even the tires. Best of all, there are very few on the road. I would definitely buy it again, but don't you buy it because I want to be the only one :)

  4. Keeley Bogan 2025-03-11

    Vehicle year: 2012

    The Kizashi was one of the cars on my short list to test drive, along with the new Optima. After driving the Optima first, I got in the Kizashi and was immediately impressed. This car is so much fun to drive, and the design and quality of the interior are top-notch. Everywhere I go, people compliment its looks. The power is more than adequate for my needs, and it's actually larger than it appears in pictures. While the rear seat room is a bit less than most competitors, four adults can still fit comfortably. The seats are well-shaped and supportive, even in the back, which is a big improvement over the Optima's rear seat that felt low, flat, and dark.

    Congratulations on your purchase! It's great to hear that you're enjoying your white Kizashi. The steering is definitely one of the standout features of this mid-sized sedan, and it's wonderful to hear that you're finding it so fluid. The interior quality is also excellent, and it's great to hear that you're finding it so quiet. It's also impressive that you're getting such good gas mileage, with an average of 27 MPG around town and 32 MPG on the highway. It's no surprise that you're getting inquiries about your car - it's a fantastic choice!
