  Great Car - 2004 Suzuki Forenza
  By Dmoore - January 26 - 1:16 pm

  I thought I would give the Forenza a shot when I bought it. The stereo was good and was the most comfortable out of all the cars I test drove. This is my work vehicle so comfort is important. I have over 106K miles and the only thing I replaced is the brake switch. It took two days to get from the dealership and cost me $15.00. I replaced myself in their parking lot. It is not a luxury car but it has definately met my needs. It will run for another 100K miles.

  I have lots of fun with my forenza S. I already put 16" chrome wheels on it and added a 12" subwoofer.

  Love my car - 2004 Suzuki Forenza
  By Tragar - June 10 - 2:00 am

  I have been searching for an affordable vehicle for the past two months. Most of the time if a car was affordable you would be driving a box. The Hyundai Elantra made me feel claustrophobic. When I took the Forenza for a test drive I knew that it was the right vehicle for me. It is roomy and classy at the same time with a great price tag. My last vehicle was a Toyota Camry so you know that I already had high expectations.

  Very Good Car So Far - 2004 Suzuki Forenza
  By suzukisok - May 17 - 2:10 am

  The poor Forenza takes so much abuse. I dont doubt that these problems do indeed exist for its owners but I have had only two problems with mine. The CD player usually takes 10-15 insertions before it will play. This is the second one and it is as bad or worse than the first. It was replaced under warranty. The second problem is an erratic idle. Sometimes it will idle at 2,000+ RPMs at start-up or even after driving on the freeway and exiting, but I found a fix for this 98% of the time. At 15+ MPH come to a HARD stop (no skid) and wait 3-4 seconds. Why does this work? I have no clue. Otherwise I have has no problems. Also, performance tires make a HUGE improvement in the handling. I love mine.

  Great car for the money - 2004 Suzuki Forenza
  By d281963 - April 28 - 2:00 am

  This is an exellent car for the money overall but with a few obvious, easily corrected, cheap details. Its ride and handling were superb even at higher speeds. Interior was quiet and the ride well controlled. Fit and finish were generally on-par with the class. Very good mid-size car at an economy car price, though resale value is still questionable.

  Mutiple trips to the dealer - 2004 Suzuki Forenza
  By Therese - March 11 - 10:00 am

  I wanted to buy a vehicle that has a lot of style/ comfort and reliabilty and a good warranty so I chose the Forenza. I purchased this car last Saturday and am happy with all but one aspect of the car...it pulls to the right regardless if Im accelerating or driving at a normal speed. I have made 3 trips to the dealer since buying this vehicle and have been told that this may be NORMAL for this car by the service dept. There is no way it is normal to drive off the road! I have also been told that the hard pull to the right when I accelerate is due to the torque steer/pull. That it is normal for it to due this.

  Good car-but be ware quirks! - 2004 Suzuki Forenza
  By Morlock - September 27 - 2:00 am

  This has been a wonderful car for me...but not without its problems. Ive already had to return to the dealership several times for emissions issues, alignment problems, and most recently fuel difficultues. Despite the fact that I drive primarily highway miles, the car stubbornly refuses to get anything better than 18-19 mpg-- horrendous for a vehicle of this type (with an engine that only puts out 126hp)!!! I am seeking help from Suzuki in solving the problem because the dealership is stumped. The necessity of filling up the car after only 200 miles of driving is a major annoyance.
