| The tint on my new suzuki - two front doors - are being scratched when the glass goes up and down. Dealer replaced the tint a couple times with no hassle but it still scratches ----any solutions there? |

its might be the same peoblem i am describing in my previous post. The problem is that the tint people use a rubber tool to get the tint as close and air tight as possible to the rubber lining of the door and with that they sometimes push the seals out of place which could possibly cause any of the following:
Smearing on the inside of the glass
Torn Tint
Window jumping off track
Glass moving slowly as a result of the above
As i said, with a dull knife and lots of patience, you can get the rubber/plastics back where they are suppose to be. If however you are one with no patience or think that the dealer should handle it, then simply take it back and suggest to them what is mentioned here. |

If you hearing a light rattle at the back of the car, its the back dash which needs reseating, some of the white clips which can be seen from the trunk are loose.
I haven't had these problems myself but i know of a couple people with identical issues which we sorted out. |
Waaaay sah, my 93 EG hatch had this issue!!!!!  |

| ppl does say all kinda ting bout which car is d best and what have you..but once a car is properly maintained it will perform well. some car parts and maintenance are just very expensive..and jus a side note, i doh trust those dealership maintained cars...dey staff competence suk even when it comes to the more popular asian vehicles...muchless ford, etc... |

QUESTION---- WHY IS THE SERVICE FEE SO RIDICULOUSLY HIGH WHEN THE CAR IS BRAND NEW AND PRACTICALLY NEEDS NO SERVICING AT ALL.
WE ALL KNOW THAT IS JUST OIL THEY GONNA CHANGE-----OR CLAIM TO CHANGE----
THEY REALLY RIPPING OFF PEOPLE BOI
I HAVE A FIRST SERVICE COMING UP BUT I BRACING FOR THE PRICE TAG!!!
A PARTNER OF MINE HAS A VITARA BUT NEVER SENT IT FOR SERVICE AS YET - HE HAS IT FOR ABOUT 6MTHS NOW. CAN'T PAY THE PRICE FOR THE SERVICE!!!!!!! |

| My services at the dealer (N&M) have ranged from $500 to $1200, depending on the kilometreage of the car. $1000 for an oil and filter change is very high. |
