Suzuki Motor Corporation of Brea, Calif.
Units Affected

Products Involved
All-Terrain Vehicles (ATVs)
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.

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.
Reported Injuries
None reported.
