I didn't know that about Suzuki pulling out either.
Last summer, I was reading an article on a possible safety recall when I found this:
American Suzuki Motor Corp. filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in November and said it would stop selling automobiles in the U.S. as part of a plan to restructure its business.
The company, based in Brea, Calif., is the sole distributor of Suzuki Motor Co. vehicles in the continental U.S.
American Suzuki Motor said it has enough cash to operate during the restructuring and intends to honor all car warranties.

As of today, Suzuki Canada Inc. (SCI) has announced they will no longer be selling automobiles after the 2014 model year. While this might not come as a shock since American Suzuki Motor Corporation declared Chapter 11 bankruptcy in the US back in November, we were assured Canadian operations would not cease.
