Is This a Chevy Tracker or A Suzuki Sidekick?
I knew that the Chevy Tracker was basically a Suzuki Sidekick that was built in Canada by Cami – a joint venture manufacturing operation between Suzuki and GM, but didn’t know how much of the Tracker was of Suzuki origin.
Well, yesterday I popped the hood open to add some windshield washer solution to cope with our usual winter muck and slush. I’ve been under the hood before, but really didn’t pay too much attention to what was in there.
This time, I took the time to look around and lo and behold, I saw the name Suzuki on several parts in the motor compartment.
It certainly looks as if there are more Suzuki OEM parts than I imagined.
Does anyone out there know if all parts, except perhaps for the distinctive body parts, are interchangeable with the Suzuki Sidekicker or, if there is some kind of parts reference manual where interchangeability can be checked? If so, please leave me a note.
This could be very handy when it comes to replacing parts on the Tracker.
With the price of new parts skyrocketing, having access to a larger parts base though Suzuki Sidekick interchangeability would be a great help.
Make it a Great Day!

Since I wrote it, there have been reports that Toyota knew about the problem – at least since 2007. Interesting.
