Suzuki Swift GT Owners
Just bought a '90 model for my son!
No owners manual and no first hand knowledge.
I fear the clutch is out after two days of owner-
ship. I hope this is not a weak link!
Someone tell me NO!!!!

Clutch is strong, will last 60 to 100,000 miles
with moderate/no abuse.
Some companies (autoparts) offer aftermarket
clutch friction discs with LIFETIME warranty!
These are "install-yourself" parts, but shows
they expect no problems.

Well it wasn't covered. I did exceed 75,000 miles, got worried, called the service manager. He said, bring the car in. (I don't think he ever ordered parts.) I was called the next day by his receptionist who said, Sorry, the warranty company will not honor the repair, because the service manager didn't request the necessary repair authorization at the proper time.
I feel it is the dealers job to know the system. I made the mistake of trusting him to be competent. The dealer--I spoke personally to the owner, told me I was lying and refused to honor the repair. It cost me fifteen hundred bucks to get the transmission fixed,(and their work failed by the way just sixty thousand miles later and I had to have the transmission overhauled again! Ouch. This a dealer not to trust.
Suzuki Factory was zero help. Bad bad experience for me, and I guess I learned to stick with Honda and Toyota and never trust farther than I can throw. Fighting words? Absolutely. Cost me a lot of money I couldn't afford as a young man with a young family. And it could have been prevented by the service manager just knowing how to fill out his paperwork.
I am thinking about buying one.
Im looking for a cheap economical car
