| Post subject: | Suzuki Vitara 2017 - CV Joint |
Hi all, Long time reader first time poster. Hehehe. Just asking the Suz community about this. I've got a 2017 Vitara 2WD - 66,000 klms, always kept well serviced & has been mostly driven country klms. On the weekend, I was slowing for a left-hand corner (doing about 10kph) when the dash lit-up like a Xmas tree, the ESP warning lights went nuts & then the left CV joint fell out & jammed my wheel against the wheel arch. Just - fell out! Just wondering if anyone else has had this issue? And if it's a NEW CV job, should I do both? Thanks all, Tony. |

I would think it highly unlikely for the inner CV joint (either side) to fail as shown in that picture WITHOUT the suspension failing FIRST - ie. the knuckle moved outwards allowing the shaft to pull apart, rather than the joint failing and pushing the wheel outwards. |
