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.
The risk
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. Owners may contact Suzuki customer service at 1-714-572-1490. Suzuki's number for this recall is 2A48.
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
Vehicles covered by this recall
Whether a particular car is affected and still unrepaired depends on its VIN — a model year being listed does not mean every car of that year is included. Check any VIN free on CarLogs, or at nhtsa.gov/recalls.
Is this car's recall fixed?
