2004 SUZUKI FORENZA RECALL - #12V397000
		RECALL FOR EXTERIOR LIGHTING : HEADLIGHTS
		
        Suzuki is recalling certain model year 2004-2006 Forenza and model year 2005-2006 Reno vehicles manufactured from September 23, 2003, through March 7, 2006.  Increased resistance due to poor contact between the terminals of certain wires can generate heat that can melt the splice pack used to connect the power circuit wires for the headlamps.  This can result in intermittent or total loss of low/high beam headlamp function.

							| Description | Suzuki is recalling certain model year 2004-2006 Forenza and model year 2005-2006 Reno vehicles manufactured from September 23, 2003, through March 7, 2006.  Increased resistance due to poor contact between the terminals of certain wires can generate heat that can melt the splice pack used to connect the power circuit wires for the headlamps.
