CPSC, Suzuki Announce Recall of All-Terrain Vehicles (ATVs)
Suzuki Motor Corporation of Brea, Calif.
Hazard
Some of the ATVs were assembled with a wire harness that may have broken ground wire strands from an improperly crimped wire splice. Broken ground wire strands could result in electrical open circuits. An electrical open circuit could prevent the tail/stop lamp from illuminating or could cause the CDI-unit of the ignition to not function. If the CDI-unit does not function, the engine will stop running, possibly leaving the rider stranded away from his or her base of operation.
Remedy
Consumers should contact their local Suzuki dealer to schedule an appointment for their ATV to be inspected and repaired.
Sold at
Suzuki dealers nationwide sold these ATVs, from August 2002 to September 2002, for between $5100 and $5300.
Affected count
Approximately 300
Injuries reported
None reported.
