What's wrong: Suzuki motor of america, Inc. (Suzuki) is recalling certain model year 2016 gsx-s1000 motorcycles manufactured July 8, 2015, to July 29, 2015, gsx-s1000a motorcycles manufactured July 10, 2015, to August 24, 2015 and, and gsx-s1000fa motorcycles manufactured July 21, 2015, to July 27, 2015. The affected motorcycles may leak brake fluid from the front brake calipers.

Why it matters: If the front brake calipers leak brake fluid, braking performance would be reduced, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix: Suzuki has notified owners, and dealers will replace the front brake calipers, free of charge. The recall began on December 1, 2015.
