The car does not start in the morning. Will not go in to gear. Have had it serviced several times. Transmission repaired (although nothing was wrong with it) Not a good value.

Grand Vitara JLX is a Great Truck!

This is a very smooth riding truck with beautiful overall looks. I love my JLX version with the rims, ground efx, etc. It makes it look way more modern. I live near Buffalo and used the 4x4 during the winter months when it was brutal. I found it to be very safe and steady. I was able to haul all kinds of different pieces of antique furniture, there is lots of room in the cargo area. The used prices are great! Snap one up, if you find one with low kilometers. They are a great value.

Cool Little SUV

This vehicle is fun to drive and is versatile with the rear seats folding flat to provide ample cargo space. Even after reaching 75,000 miles the engine runs strong, and the a/c works well. The only negative is that Suzuki does not make its repair manuals available and few aftermarket products are readily available to the consumers. I've had to fabricate the cold air intake, using a K&N filter and a piece of pvc tubing. But aside from that aspect, the vehicle is awesome, you can see performance designed into every aspect of the vehicle from the engine to the suspension front and rear. I love this truck.

Thought by now I would have sold it, but still runs and looks great. Repairs have been minimal. Car is super reliable and fun to drive. Great in all weather. Going on 10 years and the way the economy looks, I'll have this another 10. If GM would have made cars like this they wouldnt be in the trouble they are in. Thanks Suzuki.
