  Loved Car @ 1st, Now Suffering Many Issues!!! - 2005 Suzuki Verona
  By lml215 - June 23 - 2:18 pm

  We loved this car @ 1st. Weve had it 3 yrs. Its an 05 we bought in 07. Shortly after purchasing the back bumper was hit in a parking lot. Instead of only bending the bumper, a 2 1/2 ft. long piece of paint peeled off and fell. The check engine light comes on frequently & took it to the shop the first couple of times, to find out that "nothing was wrong". It still comes on and goes off all the time. A month ago it started jerking while driving, at random times. Sometimes within 5 mins, sometimes we drive all day before it happens, sometimes it wont at all. Now the key wont turn in the ignition 75% of time. After trying several times it finally will. Is this happening to anyone else???

  Not what youd think! - 2005 Suzuki Verona
  By Mike Smith - May 16 - 12:20 am

  My 2005 Verona was a fun car to drive and it ran very well. Until I had a "Thud" in the transmission and it went down hill from there. After a "Reprogramming", it now hesitates very frequently, it has a lot less horsepower, and gas milage is rotten and those were this cars good points! Suzuki has given me the run-around between Cal (Where you have to call for problems) and a service rep that takes days to call you back. If you want a car for a reasonable price, my experience is this car is "Not what youd think!"

  We bought our 05 as a demo with 6,500 miles on it. Its the smoothest running car Ive ever had. Other than a few minor issues I have no complaints. The city gas mileage could be better, but we do pretty well on the highway, at 30-32 mpg. The city mileage is 23 or so mpg. We have one complaint and that is the sound system. Suzuki could have done a lot better with the radio and speakers.

  Good reliable car, good quiet ride , handles well on the road with good passing power. Controls are easy to use and see except steering wheel at night should light controls up.

  Initial mileage readings up to 11,000 miles were only 18-19 mpg. However, after 11,500 miles, mileage improved to present 23.8 mpg city driving

  A Lot of Car for Less Money - 2005 Suzuki Verona
  By KenGTS - August 24 - 9:26 pm

  I walked into the dealership not knowing a darn thing about these cars and then left with one. Mine is a demo the dealership owner was driving. I couldnt believe how smooth it is. The inline six engine is very smooth, but needs some more oomf. I cant wait for the summer road trip!

  Buyer Beware - 2005 Suzuki Verona
  By Glenn - July 7 - 8:43 pm

  The seats are as hard as a rock and uncomfortable. Very slow acceleration. Very sloppy steering with serious under-steer. I rented this car for a few days and was very unimpressed...but its a Suzuki, which is enough said. Id buy the low-end Accord or Camry before this vehicle. No side airbags. A knowledgeable car person wouldnt ever consider this car. I can only imagine the low resale value this car will have in a couple of years

  Why oh Why Verona - 2005 Suzuki Verona
  By Jessi - March 2 - 12:20 pm

  Ive had my 2005 Verona for a few years. Like a few other owners my air bag light came on shortly after i brought her home. Its still on today. I had no problems with this car until the 100k mile mark. At the present time my car is parked, and I cant drive as there is something terribly wrong with it. I lose oil and anti-freeze but nothing is ever found on the ground. So i guess until I figure out the issue Ill continue to wonder why oh why I bought my Verona.
