Faults:

I have had only minor things happen to this car. I received it from the dealer out of alignment, but it was corrected under warranty.

Also both of the rear tail lights blew out and had to be replaced at about 50k.

The driver's side door lock became loose and the door did not close correctly. This was just a quick tightening of the hinge located on the body.

One of the fog lights was damaged by a stone, and was insanely expensive to replace.

Somewhere in the front dash there is a rattling sound that I cannot find.

The key-less entry stopped working, and the dealer tried to sell me a whole new module for $325.00, so I installed myself an alarm, remote starter, and key-less entry system with after market parts ($300.00). It is a nice upgrade in the winter.

General Comments:

Overall it has been a very reliable car, considering the purchase price.

This vehicle is based on a truck frame so be careful in the snow.

The OEM Bridgestone tires do nothing to help in the snow, get rid of them immediately.

The interior is tight and the plastic scratches easily. The seats become uncomfortable on a long trip, and lack the correct adjustments to the steering wheel. The door panel is not wide enough to rest your elbow while driving.

I load up my whole family and feel secure we are going to get where ever we are going.

Faults:

None.

The 2002 Suzuki XL-7 is one of the best car's I have ever driven. I am a VW driver, but after test driving the XL-7, I no longer want to go back to VW. The XL-7 is great. I feel the torque in the V6 engine. The safety frame and features is outstanding. Suzuki has really turned around.

Faults:

No problem at all.

General Comments:

This is a great SUV at a discount price.

It has air-conditioning on the back, day-time running light, automatically turn on the light when it is dark, very good gas mileage for a 7-seater. (21 mile per gallon)

The best part is the 0% interest on car loan.

All new 2002 has 7 year 70,000 miles warranty

A great SUV that I highly recommended.

94% of the parts are made in Japan!

Faults:

An annoying dash noise that developed during the drive home from the dealership the evening I purchased the SUV.

I have experienced squally breaks since it was 4 months old. It's just over a year now.

The clutch went out when the car was 11 months. It Took a month to "fix", the dealer claimed manufacturer couldn't supply parts. Vehicle hasn't driven properly since. The stick intermittently gets stuck in second and won't go into third.

When the SVU was 6 months old the right rear passenger seat slide track was so worn out it needed to be replaced in order to keep the seat in place.

General Comments:

I wish I had bought another Honda. I've never been so unhappy with a car. I can't wait until I can afford to replace my XL-7.

Faults:

My factor installed Bridgestone's didn't last very long - 25k.

General Comments:

This vehicle looks great (black) & works great.

The seven seats in a small SUV is exactly what I was looking for.

Faults:

None. It need to be aligned upon delivery, but other than that, it has been perfect.

General Comments:

A very nice size: not too wide when parking. Large enough to carry my dining room table & six chairs.

Can seat seven when needed, though the back 2 are not in luxury.

A great value.

Rear A/C has been very helpful in the Deep South (US).

Faults:

Engine blew at 3200kms!!!

Windows rattled when placed down approx 2"!!

Exhaust squeaked when going over bumps!!

General Comments:

After 24 days of being at the dealer for a new engine, Suzuki forgot to fix the window and the squeak.
