2003–2006 Suzuki SV1000S & 2003–2006 Suzuki SV650 + 2 more recall: fuel system
⚠️ What's wrong
On certain california-specification model motorcycles, repeated stress from vibration CAN cause a crack to form in the area where the liquid/vapor separator bracket is welded inside the fuel tank. This CAN allow fuel leakage to occur.
💥 The risk
Fuel leakage in the presence of an ignition source CAN result in a fire.
🔧 The fix
Dealers will replace the fuel tank free of charge. The recall began on february 3, 2006. Customers may contact american suzuki at 714-572-1490.
Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
