DEFECT #1 - SERVICE BRAKES
Posted on: 2013-10-21
Description
Suzuki motor of america, inc. (suzuki) is recalling certain model year 2004-2013 gsx-r600 and gsx-r750, and model year 2005-2013 gsx-r1000 motorcycles. In combination with older brake fluid, corrosion of the brake piston inside of the front brake master cylinder generates gas that may result in a reduction of fluid pressure transmission to the front brake.
Consequence
As a result, front braking power may be reduced increasing the risk of a crash.
Corrective Action
Suzuki will notify owners, and dealers will replace the front brake master cylinder, free of charge. The recall began on november 18, 2013. Owners may contact suzuki at 1-800-572-1490. Suzuki's campaign numbers for this recall are: 2a (31, 32, 33, 34, 35, and 36).
