Overheating grande vitara 2008
I shouldn't be blocked because it is pretty new. The systems are usually good for 10 yrs or so before they start getting gunked up. I would think it is either the electric fan or the fan clutch (whichever you have) could be out and it isn't cooling the engine. Also, you could have air in the system which could cause the rest of the coolant to not circulate. Check for an air bleeder valve near the top of the engine, usually near the thermostat housing.

2008 grand vitara had radoator hose collapsed
Hoses collapsed when water could not be drawn back into cooling system from over flow tank. There has to be an obstruction preventing water to flow back into radiator when car cools down.

Diagram of vacuum and fuel hose hook ups on a 2008 Suzuki Grand Vitara?
in the USA, sure a great secret, but our cars have that map under the hood, EPA mandated. open hood, and there it is for your instated engine. (some have 4 choices) mines a 2.5L but yours may be 3.6L H36 its called by suz. but fuel (well there are only 1 or 2 places to do that and both are at the fuel rail and can not be swapped they dont reach, but is covered in the FSM, ever heard of that, the factory serivce manual.? 4 dollars a look, or buy one. here is the link,
https://suzukipitstopplus.com/Products/1049-2008-grand-vitara-service-manual.aspx
but post country and engine, not all suz. use same engine,nor efi nor vacuum parts, hint each country has its own smog laws. so not posting the country makes all my answers just pure wild guessing.

Check System light meaning? on 2008 Grand Vitara?
not even God (her/him)self can answer that, for sure, not mortal man. hands in pockets.The lamp means in clear language. (the operators guide not clear:?)the ECU/PCM has seen gross errors, in the power train.the PCM wants you to scan it and see them.is it dangerous to you or the car, or others. ?sure can be, or not. depends on which of 1000 parts are bad, huh?if the CEL flashes, in USA that means you are going to burn up that expensive CAT converter. (eg, gross misfire, P030x\'s)SCAN it, if DIY oriented , post the DTC errrorsif not, get it serviced, like everyone not DIY does. do it.you can scan it, or any shop in town.that is next. gue$$ing is not of any use at all.

In cold temp,heater motor do not run
you mean low heat. at all ducts with full fan speed and blows hard,
here is the correct order.
1: engine at 180F or more holding, a absolute must.
2: fan runs at full speed on HIGH, (sounds like it)
3: fan actual blows (felt) at full speed, to any vent, try all vents.
4: now heat, will happen, if not, the dampers are closed or wrong.
damper can be complex on newer cars,they have motor controlled damper servos';
is this just blower fan dead? problem. on high, if yes say so.

Airbag module
in most cars its in the dash, somewhere. the FSM covers this.
it is a danger to work ok, (neck snapping,) do not mess with it.
unless you read the FSM on topic.
im on line, looking, at alldata.com....
its called the SDM has 3 bolts, and 3 conn. i
the drawing shows it , about where right passenger (USA only)
feet are, so id think that is under the seat or on right kick panel.
this system is complex.. i say dont mess with it ,until you read the
chapter in the FSM and all steps, and warnings. first.
