With that being said, we'd like to take the time to give you some tidbits on the history of Suzuki Motors. After all, how can you really know anything about a dealership until you know where it's been?

From Humble Beginnings to One of the Most Innovative Automakers on the Planet

Believe it or not, Suzuki Motor Corporation started as a manufacturer of weaving machines in 1909, by Michio Suzuki. By 1937, the company was producing a variety of different war related materials. After the war, there was little demand for new woven products, and they began design work on what was in demand: motorized vehicles. A major product of the company's at the time was a small 36cc engine that could be used to motorize bicycles. By the 70's, Suzuki began a major export campaign, with full motorcycle production in Thailand, Indonesia and Taiwan. Additionally, it sent cars to the United States for the first time. In the 80's, Suzuki domestically developed many new models, and continued to push its globalization. By the time the 90's rolled around, it was able to take advantage of niche markets, and become the successful and innovative automaker we know it as, today.

As you can see, Suzuki may not have always manufactured cars, but they have always produced innovation, and that’s what you’ll continually get from such a cutting edge automaker. You’ll always be ahead of the game at Ray Suzuki.

Ray Suzuki in Fox Lake Offers Waxing Tips

Washing_a_car

Sure, that means that you’ll find great deals on a variety of vehicles, including the full lineup of new models from Suzuki as well as pre-owned vehicles from a variety of automakers, but it also means that we’re available for any service needs that you may have. Our service department is staffed by expert technicians and mechanics who know how to get the most out of your vehicle. But if you’re just looking for advice, we can help you with that, too.

Tips for Waxing Your Vehicle

Waxing your vehicle is extremely important. Sure, it makes your vehicle shiny, but there’s more to it than that: a well-waxed car served as protection from all sorts of things, including dirt, debris, chemicals and the sun. Left unwaxed, these factors will dull the luster of your paint job over time. Fortunately, waxing your vehicle isn’t difficult, and Ray Suzuki in Fox Lake is here with some tips: 

1.     Wash your car. Before you apply any wax, you’ll want to give your vehicle a thorough cleaning, as remaining debris can leave grooves in your paint job, especially if you’re using an electric buffer. It’s also important to apply your wax in a shady place, as direct sunlight can adversely affect your wax job.

2.     Never apply wax directly to the paint. Always use a buffer or applicator pad.

3.     Keep it moving. If you’re using an electric buffer, keep it moving at all times. If you’re waxing by hand, use continuous circular motions.

4.     Polish it. After you’re done waxing, you’ll want to give your car a good polishing for a high shine. Use a buffing pad or, if you’re working by hand, use a clean, soft cloth.

Choose Ray Suzuki for Your Service Needs

Whether you’re looking for a place to buy your next new or pre-owned car, truck, or SUV, of if your need service, or even just advice, Ray Suzuki in Fox Lake is the place to go. Come to our dealership today and see why so many Illinois drivers choose Ray Suzuki as their dealer!

Suzuki has set and shattered performance and speed records the world over, and at Ray Suzuki, we're happy to help bring that legacy of engineering to American drivers.

The Kizashi's Appeal to Buyers

Consumers Digest ranked the mid-sized Kizashi sedan as one of their Best Buys, and J.D. Power and Associates assessed it as the "Highest Ranked Vehicle Appeal Among Midsize Cars" in their 2011 APEAL Study. Not only that, but owners also found it to be the most satisfying sedan to own, as reported by AutoPacific in 2010 and then again for the 2011 Vehicle Satisfaction Awards.
