NHTSA recall 06V013000
Fuel System, Gasoline · Suzuki Motor USA, LLC
Details
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.
Why it matters: 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.
