Vehicle report
2004 SUZUKI SWIFT
This model year
What the record shows
The 2004 Suzuki Swift is a compact car, and the 17th model year of a nameplate NHTSA records from 1988 to 2005.
The EPA rated two configurations: a single 1.6-litre four-cylinder engine, front-wheel drive only, two transmissions and running on regular gasoline.
Combined fuel economy ranges from 26 to 27 mpg depending on which one you have.
No complaints, recalls, investigations or service bulletins are on the federal record for this model year.
Counts are reports, not rates. A complaint is something an owner chose to file; it is unverified and unadjusted for how many of these cars were sold, so the useful comparison is against other model years of the same car. Recalls and investigations carry more weight because a manufacturer or regulator acted on them.
Reading this report
Complaint counts are reports filed with NHTSA, not failure rates. A common model collects more of them than a rare one that breaks more often.
