2024 Suzuki GSX-8R recall: powertrain & transmission
⚠️ What's wrong
Suzuki Motor USA, LLC (Suzuki) is recalling certain 2024 GSX-8R motorcycles. The drive chain may detach due to missing rivets, which can result in a loss of power to the rear wheels.
💥 The risk
A loss of drive power increases the risk of a crash.
🔧 The fix
Dealers will inspect and repair the drive chain with a replacement joint and replace sprockets as necessary, free of charge. All affected motorcycles are within the manufacturers direct control and therefore no owner notification letters will be sent. Owners may contact Suzuki customer service at (714) 572-1490. Suzuki's number for this recall is 3A02.
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.)
