NHTSA recall 00V319000
Engine And Engine Cooling · Suzuki Motor USA, LLC
Details
What's wrong: Excessive slack will develop in the cam chain, allowing the chain to jump to the wrong position on the cam shaft sprockets.
Why it matters: Severe engine damage could occur, causing sudden engine failure.
The fix: Dealers will replace the original cam chain tension adjuster, or the first generation recall tension adjuster, with a new oil-damped ratchet-type cam chain tension adjuster. Dealers will also install a new tension adjuster oil supply hose and a new cam chain guide.
