Suzuki Aerio (2004) Sx

[Amber]

Any one out there having a problem with their Aerio making clicking or whooshing noises when driving?
Any problems with breaks?

6 months ago we bought a aerio sx like the space hate the car.
we drive about 1,500 miles or more a month and @ 3,000 miles the moulding on the side of our car stated to come off and the paint from the bumper was chipping. Then our car started to make a noise we when turned left this clicking sound.

Took the car to the dealer!!! HA HA HA

Needed our rotor resurfaced @ 3,000 (What)
but had no idea waht the noise was how funny as soon as we drove off the lot the noise was not there any longer.

paints still chipping and now have have more problems!

when we break there is this cluncking sound (like the car is going to come off the frame sound) took to the dealer and they tell us it is normal running of the vehical.


Yeah sure now @ 14,500 miles the car makes a new noise but it's normal.

@ 15,112 car still makes noise and now makes whooshing sounds and clicking the entiire time driving.

took car to dealer nothing wrong Breaks @ 35% but per dealer nothing to worry about yet.

Car @ 15,275 noise is bad tired of dealer took car to midas they can't work on it because car is too new but they did look @ it Front break is @ 5% and rotor needs to be replaced.

Midas says they have never seen a new car come in with break issues and rotor @ 15,000 miles.

What part of Florida are you from Amber? And what dealer are you going to? How many miles do you have on the car? Im gonna see if I can help you a little, but I need to know these things first.

Hay Amber, I had the same problem had to buy new brakes at 16k my front brakes were as such: Left driver 50% right Pass 5% yes that right 5%. Suzuki dealership had this to say "Out the door Suzuki ships their cars with soft pads equip". Softer pads tend to wear faster for us commuters that drive above normal driving. I live here in New Mexico if you want to go to a mall it's about a half an hour drive around 25-30 miles. Just to get to my dealership it's located in Albuquerque which is about 25 miles away from me. So the point being is replace your brakes with harder brakes and I would have to tell you to go to a place like Brake Masters or Just Brakes or Midas due to better warrenty. You would have to change your brakes maybe every 20k with harder pads
