Details

What's wrong: On certain passenger cars, the dual stage driver's air bag deploys in an improper sequence.

Why it matters: If the driver's air bag deploys improperly during a frontal vehicle crash, the driver could be severely injured or killed.

The fix: Dealers will install an adapting wiring harness. Owner notification began on October 30, 2003, to verona vehicle owners. All forenza vehicles were repaired at the port of entry. There are no owner notifications necessary for the forenza model vehicles. Owners should contact Suzuki at 1-800-934-0934.
