Pros: What do you like about 2007 Suzuki XL-7?
Drive train and suspension are good.
Nice power and handling with decent fuel economy.

Cons: How would you improve 2007 Suzuki XL-7?
Heater core started leaking at about 70K miles. Reading lots of similar complaints.
Interior trim pieces cracked or are coming off.
Poor visibility in rear.
Window controls really take some getting used to.
No luggage racks available. Seriously?

2007 Suzuki XL-7 Review:
In the driver's seat, it was pretty good. Up until the heater core started leaking and fogging up the windshield, that is. Or until you have to back up in cluttered terrain.

Pros: What do you like about 2007 Suzuki XL-7?
Nice accessories and look.

Cons: How would you improve 2007 Suzuki XL-7?
I bought the car 2.5 years ago, it has 66,000 km on it.

- Battery gets drained quickly.
- A/C fan stopped working several times.
- Back door wasn't working.
- CD is working.
- Guess what is the biggest among all of that : Timing Chain !!!
The timing chain for the XL7 gets stretched and you need USD 1000 to fix it if you buy GM spare parts. I know that you think that I'm a unique case. Do me a favor and google "XL7 Timing Chain Problem".

2007 Suzuki XL-7 Review:
Don't buy the car. It is not reliable and it is my last Suzuki.

Pros: What do you like about 2007 Suzuki XL-7?
I like the size of the vehicle, however am disappointed with the 3rd row seat. Third row space is very limited.

I love the stereo and interior of the vehicle.

Cons: How would you improve 2007 Suzuki XL-7?
Do not like the window control locations. I bought the vehicle new in November 2006.

I've already experienced a transmission axle malfunction. It took 7 days to get the part to repair vehicle.

I just replaced the shocks with less than 100,000 miles and highway driving.

The steering wheel makes noise when parking.

Windshield wiper pump malfunctioned at 40,000 miles.

I have a bent rim and can't replace it because my mechanic can't locate it. There are 18 types of rims for the 2007 XL7. It took him two weeks to find the shocks for a seven passenger.

2007 Suzuki XL-7 Review:
I like the XL7, however a little surprised with the vehicle's issues. It's difficult to locate parts. Never having owned a Suzuki, I bought the vehicle because of Suzuki's past performance and am a little disappointed with the issues I've already experienced with the vehicle.

Pros: What do you like about 2007 Suzuki XL-7?
The performance.
Exterior.
Interior etc.
Beauty of it.
Very comfortable, great for a big family.

Cons: How would you improve 2007 Suzuki XL-7?
Should check the front train, power steering, and the traction control, always have problems when it snows, I always get stuck in the snow..... Right now I cannot steer at all, I already took it 3 times within a month to get the power steering fixed and it happen again today, and I only picked it up 1 day ago now the power steering is not working again, I am waiting to get in contact with Suzuki to let them know that I cannot steer at all.... I think Suzuki should do a recall on the Suzuki XL 2007 because I have been having a lot of problems lately with my power steering, radio and the remote. They are always malfunctioning..... even though we have a warranty we still had to pay for labor... So far thank god we are safe because the vehicle was so very hard to steer, an accident could have occurred, I do not feel safe driving this vehicle anymore because I do not want to put my 4 children and other family members in any danger because of the past 4 experiences I have had, including the one I had today, thank god we are all ok.

Find out why it stalls at random times.

2007 Suzuki XL-7 Review:
Vehicle battery was dead at random times and had to be towed in for this problem 5 times. We ended up trading it off and getting a vehicle we could depend on, we are trying to get some monetary settlement because of all the grief but Suzuki will not deal with us at this point.

2007 Suzuki XL-7 Review:
Have had problems with rackinpinnion steering for last 6 months. Dealer has had parts ordered, so far all we have been told is that they are on backorder. Dealer told us there are 4 others waiting on the same part. We really like the XL7 but not sure about buying something that parts are not more available. 6 months, still no parts.
