American Suzuki Motor Recalls

Hazard: The regulator/rectifier circuit board can fail and cause the engine to stall during riding due to an insufficient battery charge, increasing the risk of a crash.

Hazard: Some KingQuad ATV's plastic fuel tanks were improperly manufactured and can develop a fuel leak, posing a fire hazard.

Hazard: The bushing pivot mount boss on the left and right suspension arm may not have been welded completely and could break off during riding. If this occurs, the rider could lose control of the ATV and crash, posing risk of serious injury or death.

Hazard: The mounting brackets used to secure the left-front suspension arm to the ATV frame may not have been welded completely and could break off during riding. If this occurs, the rider could lose control of the ATV and crash, posing a risk of serious injury or death.

Hazard: The cushion lever mounting bracket on the ATV frame can break. If this occurs, the rider could lose control of the ATV and crash, posing a risk of serious injury or death.

Hazard: Certain 2005 Eiger model year ATVs were assembled with an improperly manufactured plastic fuel tank. The thin portion of these tanks could develop a fuel leak, posing a fire hazard.

Hazard: Use of an improper tie rod adjustment procedure during assembly could lead to separation of the tie rod end housing from the attachment shaft. This could cause the rider to lose control of the ATV and result in injury or death.

Hazard: A significant impact to the front wheel of the ATV, while the steering is fully turned to either side, can result in suspension damage, wear, and an eventual loss of steering control, that could result in injury or death.

Hazard: The fuel petcock inserts were made with incorrect material, that does not correctly bond the fuel tank and petcock insert, which could allow fuel leakage. If this occurs, a fire hazard with the possibility of injury and property damage could result.

Hazard: Water can enter the throttle lever case and freeze, causing the throttle lever to become stuck and fail to automatically return to the idle position when the rider releases the throttle. If the throttle lever does not automatically return to the idle position when the rider releases the throttle, the ATV will not slow down as the rider expects. The rider could lose control of the ATV and an accident resulting in injury or death could occur.

Hazard: The rear shock absorber may have been assembled with an incorrect o-ring, allowing fluid to leak from the shock absorber. Fluid loss from the shock absorber can compromise the shock's damping characteristics, which can render the motorcycle unstable, creating a potential for injury or death.

Hazard: Recalled ATVs were assembled with an incorrectly sized mounting bolt under the fuel tank. This could result in fuel leakage, presenting a fire safety hazard and risk of injury or death.

Hazard: The drive chain on these ATVs could come off the sprockets and lock the rear axle. This could cause the driver to lose control of the ATV and crash, possibly resulting in injury or death.
