I have received multiple recall notifications for problems with air bag on the passenger side, and a fuel tank that Suzuki says may crack. It would be great to have these things taken care of, but the repair providers that Suzuki has authorized are both 3 HOURS away! That means 6 hours total driving time, which is quite unreasonable. Does the NHTSA have any authority to either 1) get Suzuki to authorize a shop a reasonable distance from me, or, 2) have Suzuki reimburse me for recall repairs done at a local facility? I have called Suzuki myself, but they are extremely unhelpful. They made their money when they sold the car, and seem to be extremely unwilling to promote any lasting good will.

Constant smell of gas and then computer issued code P0456. Dealer found a dangerous situation where the fuel fill pipe and attached vent pipe was rusting badly. Small rust holes were in the vent pipe. This was causing the P0456 code and also leaking of fumes and gas. This could cause a possible fire situation with the vehicle.
