Does your Kizashi have many interior creaks/squeaks/rattles?
KIzashi is a good car overall, lots of features and luxary for the money. The only complain is the performance. Of course I can keep the rpm at around 4k but then the gas milage will plummet. And the other thing is that Kizashi is friggin HEAVY!! It's heavier than a lot of CUV/SUV lol.

Nope, the only thing i had the make a noise that is out of the ordinary is my exhaust that hits my brace bar when i got over bumps. But that's because I don't have the stock exhaust, I have the RRM exhaust and then their brace bar and I can fix it but it doesn't bother me yet. My interior is still in amazing shape, I clean it weekly and want it to last for a long time to come.

Mine has a squeaky dashboard... I started a thread about it. No fixes for it as of now but dealer managed to quite down the squeak by up to 80%.
Recall is actually a good think if you look at it this way: The car manufacturer actually cares about its customer and derive fixes to reported problems.
Generally, recalls are safety related and issued to cover their asses. If there's a recall it's actually not a good thing as it signifies an error they feel is dangerous and puts them at a higher liability risk if not addressed. To often a recall is confused w/ a problem in which a TSB is issued. Now, a recall for errors that cause the car to fail prematurely, not in any way related to 'safety', you'll generally not see. SX4's had a bunch of mis-labeled main crank bearings installed in 07 and/or 08. Not a safety issue, but one that'll kill the engine early. No recall. They'll fix it if you have a problem, prove you did the required maintenance and put up a stink.
I have 2011 SE Kizashi and it has 58k in 2 years. No issues. It's a great car. I had SX4 before it that had 70k in 2.5 years - never had any issues and traded it for kizashi. Suzuki SX4 and Kizashi's are best in their class.
