Suzuki GSX1300R recalls in Canada

Transport Canada runs its own recall programme. Its campaigns do not always mirror the American ones, so a Canadian owner reading a US-only list is reading about a different car than the one on their driveway.

2008 Suzuki GSX1300R Recall 2016022 18 Jan 2016 8,504 units in Canada

Electrical

On certain motorcycles, the regulator/rectifier assembly may have been produced with insufficient adhesion between the power module (circuit board) and the rectifier case. Due to this insufficient adhesion, heat generated on the power module circuit board can cause the circuit board to deform. This could cause excessive heat on the circuit board and uncontrolled electric current output, which can result in insufficient charging current being provided to the vehicle's battery. Battery discharge could lead to engine stalling and/or a no-start condition. Lost propulsion, in conjunction with traffic and road conditions, and the rider's reactions, could increase the risk of a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will replace the regulator/rectifier assembly. Note: This recall may supersede recall 2011-071 for certain model motorcycles, which will require re-inspection and repair.

2008 Suzuki GSX1300R Recall 2008195 4 Jun 2008 336 units in Canada

Electrical

On certain motorcycles, improper routing of the wiring harness can cause the harness to flex rather than slide when the handlebar is moved. Repeated side-to-side movement of the handlebar, and flexing of the wiring harness, can eventually cause damage to the ignition switch lead wires. This could result in intermittent or complete loss of electrical power, which can cause a loss of lighting and/or stalling of the engine. Unexpected loss of lighting and/or engine stalling could, under certain conditions, cause a vehicle crash resulting in personal injury or death. Correction: Dealers will replace the lower portion of the ignition switch (which contains the ignition switch lead wires) and ensure that the harness is routed properly.

1999 Suzuki GSX1300R Recall 2000254 16 Oct 2000 545 units in Canada

Powertrain

On certain vehicles, the spring in the cam chain tension adjuster can break. This can cause excessive slack in the cam chain and allow the cam chain to jump to the wrong position, causing severe engine damage and sudden engine failure. Sudden engine failure while riding can cause rear wheel lockup and loss of vehicle control. Correction: Screw-type cam chain tension adjuster will be replaced with a ratchet-type cam chain tension adjuster.
