What owners wrote

Driving at highway speeds (60 MPH or more) intense vibration is felt. It makes me feel as if I am out of control. I test drove another one that did the same thing and foolishly thought it was just that one. I am returning the vehicle to be looked at. The service person told me others have been coming back with the same problem. When I asked what the problem turned out to be she wouldn't tell me ! Something fishy going on here.

April 1999

Front suspension crossmember has rusted through on my 1999 suzuki vitara. The chevrolet tracker, which is the same car has had a safety recall due to this issue. This poses a significant safety concern!
