What NHTSA owner complaints mean

These figures count complaints that vehicle owners and other members of the public have submitted to NHTSA's Office of Defects Investigation. NHTSA uses complaints, together with other data, to spot safety issues that may warrant an investigation and to check whether existing recalls go far enough.

  • They are reports, not findings. Each complaint is the submitter's own account. Its presence in the database does not mean NHTSA has confirmed a defect.
  • Counts are not defect rates. The data doesn't say how many vehicles were sold, so a raw count can't tell you what share of vehicles had a problem.
  • Popular models collect more complaints. A model sold in large numbers will usually gather more complaints than a rare one, simply because more people own it.
  • One complaint can name several components. Totals by component can therefore add up to more than the number of complaints.
  • Coverage starts in 1995. NHTSA's complaint file contains complaints received since January 1, 1995.

Use complaint patterns as a prompt for questions: whether a recall covers the issue, whether the vehicle you are considering has had the fix, and what a mechanic finds on inspection. For confirmed safety defects, see the recall list for this model.

  1. NHTSA campaign 15V852000

    Reported

    Engine and Engine Cooling › Engine

    Model years 2013–2014

    Suzuki Motor of America, Inc. (Suzuki) is recalling certain model year 2013-2014 SFV650 and AN650A, and 2012-2014 DL650A motorcycles. Contamination from component production and storage combined with manufacturing variations may result in excessive tappet and camshaft wear within the engines of the affected motorcycles.

    Consequence:
    The excessive wear may result in an engine stall, increasing the risk of a crash.
    Remedy:
    Suzuki will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the tappet clearance, replacing the tappets and camshafts, as necessary. All motorcycles that have less than 2500 miles will have their tappets and camshafts replaced since wear may not be evident. These repairs will be performed free of charge. The recall began on February 5, 2016. Owners may contact Suzuki customer service at 1-714-996-7040. Suzuki's number for this recall is 2A50, 2A51, and 2A52.

  2. NHTSA campaign 12V038000

    Reported

    Exterior Lighting › Brake Lights › Switch

    Model year 2012

    Suzuki is recalling certain model year 2012 AN400, AN650, and DL650 scooters and motorcycles manufactured prior to December 17, 2011, because the lever-mounted brake light actuating switch(es) may fail.

    Consequence:
    On the AN400 and AN650 models, failure of the switches will prevent the scooters from starting. On all of the affected models, failure of the brake light switch(es) may cause the brake lights to not illuminate when a scooter or motorcycle is braking, thereby increasing the risk of a crash with a trailing vehicle.
    Remedy:
    Suzuki will notify owners, and Suzuki distributors will replace the brake light actuating switch, free of charge. The safety recall began on February 13, 2011. Owners may contact Suzuki at 1-714-996-7040.

  3. NHTSA campaign 05V497000

    Reported

    Fuel System, Gasoline › Delivery › Fuel Pump

    Model year 2005

    On certain scooters, the fuel pump retaining ring may have been improperly installed resulting in improper seating of the fuel pump retaining ring on the fuel tank due to misalignment of the threads.

    Consequence:
    If the fuel pump retaining ring is not properly seated on the fuel tank, the fuel pump retaining ring could be deformed during normal expansion of the plastic fuel tank, resulting in insufficient sealing performance and fuel leakage. This could present a fire safety hazard and risk of injury or death.
    Remedy:
    Dealers will repair or replace the fuel pump retaining ring. The recall began on November 3, 2005. Owners may contact Suzuki at 714-572-1490.

How to read this recall list

This list shows every safety recall campaign NHTSA has on file for this make, model and model year. It is not specific to one vehicle: a recall often covers only vehicles built in a certain date range or with a certain part, and many of the vehicles it covers will already have been repaired.

FieldWhat it tells you
Campaign numberNHTSA's unique ID for the recall, such as 20V771000. Quote it to a dealer or when searching NHTSA's site.
ComponentThe system or part involved, for example air bags, brakes or electrical software.
SummaryWhat the defect or non-compliance is and which vehicles are covered.

  • Some recalls carry an NHTSA consumer advisory, “Do Not Drive” or “Park Outside”. Follow it until the repair is done.
  • A single campaign often covers several models or model years, so the same campaign number can appear in more than one list.
  • Recalls are shown as NHTSA publishes them. Very recent campaigns may take time to appear.
