Late last year, NZTA advised owners of Suzuki Fronx vehicles in New Zealand to stop carrying passengers in the rear seats of the vehicles. This followed the failure of a safety belt in a laboratory crash test carried out by the Australasian New Car Assessment Programme (ANCAP).

Suzuki NZ is now:

• in the process of contacting affected vehicle owners to arrange the recall to replace the rear seat belt, which will be carried out at Suzuki dealers.
• restarting the sales of Suzuki Fronx which will all be equipped with the appropriate rear seat belt.

Once the recall for the vehicle has been completed at a Suzuki NZ dealer, the advice not to carry back seat passengers can be ignored.

If you get any questions from customers, tell them to contact Suzuki directly:
