Suzuki steering problems

Owners have filed 235 complaints with NHTSA about the steering on Suzuki vehicles — 4% of everything reported about the brand, across 35 models. The model that accounts for most of them is the Suzuki XL7, worst in 2007.

These are raw counts. A model that sold in millions appears near the top for that reason alone — the grade never compares one model with another.
