Model(s):
FORENZA, RENO
Year(s):
2004, 2005, 2006
Manufacturer:
AMERICAN SUZUKI MOTOR CORP.
NHTSA ID:
07V452000
Recall Date:
September 25th, 2007
Units Affected:
93,963

Affected Component: Exterior lighting.

Summary: On certain passenger vehicles, headlamp low beam or daytime running light (drl) function may be inoperative due to a melted splice pack on the wiring harness. .

Conequence: Inappropriate lighting could reduce visibility of vehicles and increase the potential for a crash. .

Remedy: Dealers will splice the power circuit wires for the low-beam headlamps and drl free of charge. The recall will be mailed in three phases, starting at the end of october 2007 and concluding by the end of january 2008;. Owners may contact suzuki at 1-800-934-0934. .

Notes: Suzuki recall no. Nb. Customers may also contact the national highway traffic safety administration's vehicle safety hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (tty 1-800-424-9153).

Make(s):

Model(s):
FORENZA, RENO
Year(s):
2004, 2005, 2006
Manufacturer:
AMERICAN SUZUKI MOTOR CORP.
NHTSA ID:
12V397000
Recall Date:
August 14th, 2012
Units Affected:
101,688

Affected Component: Electrical system:wiring:interior/under dash | exterior lighting:headlights.

Summary: Suzuki is recalling certain model year 2004-2006 forenza and model year 2005-2006 reno vehicles manufactured from september 23, 2003, through march 7, 2006. Increased resistance due to poor contact between the terminals of certain wires can generate heat that can melt the splice pack used to connect the power circuit wires for the headlamps. This can result in intermittent or total loss of low/high beam headlamp function. .

Conequence: If the headlamps fail to function, this will lead to reduced driver visibility, increasing the risk of a crash. .
