I have 44,000 miles on my 2006 suzuki forenza - only 5 years old and the struts are gone! The front end of my car bounces like its on a trampoline! This should not be happening at 5 years old. Suzuki needs to make good on their bad struts on this car. I have seen lots of people complaining .. One of them at 21,000 miles.. And this hasn't been recalled? What gives? Also, I can't lock my car from the outside anymore. The airbag light is always on saying its not working.
