Recalls & safety

3 recalls recorded in the EU Safety Gate (European market) for the Suzuki SX4. Recalls can flag known weaknesses of the model.

  • Passenger carEU · Safety Gate (Germany)

    The seams of the front, seat-back covers may have been sewn incorrectly in the area of the side airbag. As a consequence, the seams are too close together and sewn too tightly so that, in the event of an accident, it is possible that the side airbag will not be deployed correctly.

  • Passenger carEU · Safety Gate (The Netherlands)

    The product does not comply with the Regulation on the approval and market surveillance of motor vehicles and their trailers, and of systems, components and separate technical units intended for such vehicles.

  • Passenger carEU · Safety Gate (Hungary)

    The ambient temperature sensor may malfunction. If this occurs, the engine controller will not detect sensor failure and consequently the MIL (Malfunction Indicator Light) will not illuminate. These systems monitor the vehicle’s exhaust and pollution control devices to ensure that they are operating properly. The product does not comply with the OBD (On-board diagnostics) regulation.
