Since Suzuki will no longer be selling in North America, at least that's what I've heard, what will this do to the price of repairs and maintenance?
Asked by Misa Apr 30, 2013 at 11:57 PM about the 2006 Suzuki Grand Vitara Premium
Question type: General
I am (possibly) days away from purchasing a Grand Vitara and am concerned that repairs
and maintenance on a car that is no longer sold in the States will be hard to come by at
least and extremely costly at worst. Should I be concerned about this?

a car called Saturn also stopped makin' 'em...doesn't stop the availability of replacement parts, if this is what you're askin'~ no effect.
"Should I be concerned about this?" - You should be concerned if you plan on selling or trading the Grand Vitara in the next few years. It's not going to hold as much value as a make that has a local dealer. If you plan on keeping it for the long haul, that doesn't matter as much unless it's in a accident.
I actually plan on driving it til the wheels fall off. The car I have now is a '99 Grand Am that has been paid off for a couple of years. My 16 year old is getting it and we need two cars or I really wouldn't be looking now. You're answers were very helpful! Thank you!
