"Has anyone experienced problems with the DF25? It was purchased brand new in the spring and from the start there was significant hesitation in acceleration at lower speeds (which has gotten worse), warning light came on, and has continually had very rough running at all but dead-slow speed. Reported it to dealership and to Suzuki. Dealership has worked on it at least 4 separate times and says they can't locate the problem. Suzuki denies there is any problem with these motors and says they won't replace it - they are willing to repair it for as many times as they need to - problem is that the boating season in New England is at most 4 months long and 3 months of the motor not operating have gone by. Very unhappy with this product. Any suggestions?"

Suzuki is not known for a good dealer / service / parts network.At least not in my area.Some dealers have tried to sell and support the product but have given up on them.Might be best to sell and try something that you can get satisfaction with.

"I wouldn't take no for an answer!! I would demand a replacement motor. As the old saying goes the squeakey wheel gets the oil! If it was me I would pester both the dealer and suzuki until they do something. Write letters to the owner of the dealership, perhaps he's not even aware of the problem. Good luck!"
