ASMC offers the longest transferable warranty in the industry, covering the powertrain for 100,000 miles or seven years -- whichever comes first -- and providing Suzuki owners more than 14,000 miles of coverage per year.

[trans(mission) + axle.] , transmission and transfer case, and front- and rear-wheel-drive systems. "Comparatively speaking, our warranty is the best in the industry," said American Suzuki President Rick Suzuki. "Although Kia and Hyundai offer a 10-year/100,000-mile warranty, it is non-transferable. Since the average length of original ownership is five years, those warranties are, in effect, good for five years for the average owner. "Chrysler just started a new seven-year/70,000-mile transferable warranty, but since a typical customer drives around 15,000 miles per year, the Chrysler warranty may expire in less than five years. "The Suzuki seven-year/100,000-mile warranty gives buyers peace of mind with 84 months of coverage, as well as helps maintain the value of the vehicle since the warranty will transfer with the vehicle and is not limited to the original owner." The seven-year/100,000-mile warranty is part of Suzuki's "Open Road Promise," a new three-tiered program designed to strengthen Suzuki's customer satisfaction and bolster consumer confidence in the Suzuki line.
