  • The Beast with Faults - 2004 Suzuki Verona
    By -

    The Engine will pass most anything in and out of its class [I used to own an audi turbo] at the front end it has a hesitation. The suspension is too soft and will need to be replaced too soon [100k]. The electrical/indicator system is not the best[my check engine light has been on and off for over 100k and my millage has not changed since day one, and the dealers cannot give me a ration explanation. Car has 150k miles and stops on a dime and has bailed me out of several nasty braking situations!

  • Buyers - Beware - Research this Car - 2004 Suzuki Verona
    By -

    I purchased this car just a little over a year ago after previously owning a Grand Vitara and an XL-7. This is a beautiful car and you definitely get a lot for your money, but there are so many problems with it (it was a brand-new model in 2004) Visit the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration website to read all the complaints on this vehicle - definitely educate yourself before you buy! I have to say that the dealership Ive dealt with has been very nice but they keep saying they know theres a problem, but theres no resolution for it - Suzuki needs to do something! Were in the process of starting the lemon law procedures...

    Im pretty pleased with the Suzuki Verona. Ive read the other reviews and I havent had the same number of problems as some of the reviewers. I have only had two problems. The first is that in the city and on the highway I only seem to get 19mpg. The second problem that Ive had is the car occasionally stalling out at red lights. Thats the reason that I decided to post a review. I took the car into the dealership and they told me that they couldnt reproduce the problem but it happend again on the way home. The good news is that I put STP Gas Treatment in the car the next time I filled up and the problem hasnt recurred in 3 months. I suspect it was bad gas or a dirty injector.

  • A Very Nice Ride - 2004 Suzuki Verona
    By -

    I have owned over two dozen cars. The Suzuki Verona is a better all around car than most of my previous vehicles. First of all, I have only driven my Verona a few thousand miles, so I cannot comment on long term reliability. That being said, I have had not had to take it to a dealer yet. The 155HP V6 engine does not produce a fast car per say, however it is very smooth and quiet due to its inline design. I still can honestly say it is quicker than the Ford Taurus base V6, and much quieter to boot. This is a family sedan, not a sports car. I love both the unique interior and exterior design. Besides, I paid thousands under sticker price, and the inclusion of a 100,000 mile Suzuki warranty sealed the deal.

  • What Ashame for a Great Looking Car - 2004 Suzuki Verona
    By -

    Ive had this car for about 7 months and have had a number of electronic problems with it. I have started the Lemon Law process and am sad about that because the car is sleak and great looking in design. It has a great looking and very rich interior, but the inline 6 engine and transmision gets shafted by the engines computer which had been recalled. Ive had mine replaced three times. Now for a month, I have had a very loud tapping noise along with the engine bucking and hessitating when power is needed on take offs. I find the Suzuki Rep and the Dealerships (2) the I have dealt with, not very interested in helping or listening to me on my concerns. What ashame for a great, beautiful looking car that would be a great deal

  • A Few Minor Issues - 2004 Suzuki Verona
    By -

    I acquired this as a used car with only 11,500 miles, and loved the aesthetic value. It looks wonderful, inside and out! But this past January, I had to have to the transmission completely replaced. Ive also had my doubts about the axles and CV joints, though the dealer hasnt found anything wrong. The "check engine" light has come on a couple times over false alarms and Ive noticed that the transmission can be quite sticky when switching out of/into reverse gear. I also have some concerns about whether the Verona couldve been designed with better fuel efficiency. Lastly, Ive abandoned using the wheel-mounted stereo controls; they dont respond accurately at all.

  • Good Car - 2004 Suzuki Verona

    Lots of extras come standard with this model, I cant think of any other option I would even want. I dont know if there even exists a better deal out there for the money especially with this kind of warranty. Very nice handling car!

  • Probably could have done better - 2004 Suzuki Verona
    By -

    I like the relatively quick action when I punch it, but Ive had it in the shop several times since the purchase. Usually theyre just small things. Currently, its the oxygen sensor. Ive had it in three times for that and its still not fixed. The interior is very classy and I feel "rich" but the other issues are annoying.

    Strong solid car with an expensive ride and feel. Good on wet pavement. Better power at higher speeds than t lower speeds. Could use some low speed power up grades.
