Suzuki Motor of America is recalling 287 model year 2013 Suzuki SFV650 motorcycles manufactured March 23, 2013, to April 8, 2013, 2014; Suzuki SFV650 motorcycles manufactured October 24, 2013, to November 26, 2013; and 2015 Suzuki SFV650 motorcycles manufactured August 9, 2014, to September 12, 2014.
During assembly of the motorcycle, the fuel tank breather hose may have not been positioned properly and may become kinked.. That could cause pressure to build inside the fuel tank and cause the tank to crack, resulting in a fuel leak, increasing the risk of a fire.
Suzuki will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and replace the fuel tank breather hose. If the existing breather hose was found to be kinked and obstructed, the fuel tank will also be replaced. These repairs will be performed free of charge. The recall was expected to begin on January 8, 2016.
Owners may contact Suzuki customer service number at 1-714-572-1490. Suzuki's number for this recall is 2A49.
