Anything related to the Kizashi can go here, but please look at the other headings first. Your topic may fit better under something else.

Thanks Toddashi, if you are going to get it fixed do you mind asking what the service bulletin number is so I have something to refer the technicians to?

Getting some squeaking noise too, in the cold, so if one has any more info such as the service bulletin number, that would be great.

I'm taking my Kizashi in this week to have them look at the rear squeak as well. I brought it in previously but the car sat in the service shop where it is warm and then didn't make the noise when they took it out. I'll let you know what they find this time around. It typically happens when the temp is at or below 35 degrees.

I also have the rear squeak on my car. this is the second time i brought the car to the shop cus of the squeak. the tech told me that every car squeaks when temp is low and if they can't fix the problem this time, they are going to charge me cus this is not covered under warranty.

how can this be not under warranty? i meant, it's not like i caused the problem. the car is like that whenever the temp is low and roads are uneven, it should be covered under warranty!

I just paid attention to my car, and voila! Rear squeaks indeed when temp is cold and road is uneven.

To be honest, it is quite noticeable, but I had somehow accepted that during cold temps it was expected. I'll suscribe to the thread.

Does anyone have an update on this? Toddashi? I brought mine into Wayne NJ Suzuki yesterday where they warmed up the car (it was sitting in the heated garage for three hours before they could get to it) and they could not thereafter reproduce it. They were not aware of the special e-mail Toddashi mentioned. Is there a phone number for Suzuki regional/service we can call so that the dealers can be apprised?

the temp has been above 0 for the past few weeks so can't do anything now. will have to bring the car back into the shop again when it gets cold.

Anyone have an update on this issue? My dealer is unaware of the problem and will not address it.
