Hey, Suzuki news! Didn't expect that after they pulled their cars out of the U.S. market in 2012. Unfortunately, it's not good news as they've announced today they're recalling 184,000 Suzuki Forenzas and Renos over a fire risk. And yes, they were made by GM.

Reuters reports a part in the daytime running lights could overheat and increase the chance of a fire. It's a problem that promoted GM to recall 2004-2008 Chevy Aveos yesterday, made in South Korea with these Suzuki-badged cars.

The Suzukis affected are Forenzas and Renos, model years 2004 and 2008, of which there's an estimated 184,244 of them. Suzuki hasn't quite figured out what the repair will be, but it reportedly plans to notify owners once it does. And hopefully they'll tell you where to go if you have one of these cars, because when's the last time you saw a Suzuki dealer?
