SUZUKI Complaints

THE FUEL INJECTION SYSTEM CAUSES SURGING, STALLING, AND UNEXPECTED ENGINE PERFORMANCE. UNABLE TO OPERATE VEHICLE IN SAFE MANNER DUE TO UNEVEN AND UNEXPECTED ENGINE PERFORMANCE. WHEN TRAVELING DOWN THE ROAD AT A CONSTANT RPM, THE BIKE "SURGES" BACKFIRES, MISSES, AND CAN NOT MAINTAIN A CONSTANT RPM. I HAVE RODE TWO OTHER IDENTICAL BIKES THAT DO NOT EXHIBIT ANY OF THESE PROBLEMS AND ARE SAFE TO DRIVE. SUZUKI CUSTOMER SERVICE REFUSES TO ADMIT OR ADDRESS THAT THERE ARE PROBLEMS WITH CERTAIN SUZUKI DL1000 MOTORCYCLE FUEL INJECTION SYSTEMS. DT

CONSUMER STATES, THE TEMPERATURE GAUGE ALWAYS INDICATED HOT, DUE TO THE RADIATOR CAP WHICH IS DEFECTED, HAS BEEN CHANGE THREE TIMES. AND REOCURRING THE PROBLEM.. PLEASE PROVIDE FURTHER INFORMATION. TS

A LOT OF 2000 SUZUKI GSX-R750 MOTORCYCLES ARE HAVING THE 2ND GEARS GO OUT OF THEM DUE TO A HOLLOW SHIFT SHAFT AND THE 2ND DRIVEN GEAR ENGAGEMENT DOGS. SUZUKI AMERICA WILL NOT ADMIT TO THIS PROBLEM. THEY REVISED THESE PART #'S FOR THE 2001 MODELS AND THEY DO NOT HAVE THIS ISSUE. THE REVISED PART #'S ARE (SHIFT SHAFT/25510-35F01) & (2ND DRIVEN GEAR ENGAGEMENT DOGS/24321-35F01). I HAVE HAD A CASE OPEN WITH SUZUKI (CASE # 55970) FOR A LONG TIME NOW, AND THEY REFUSE TO FIX IT. THIS FAILED RIGHT AFTER MY WARRANTY WAS UP. IF THIS WERE TO FAIL ON SOMEONE WHILE IN A TURN IT COULD CAUSE THEM TO WREAK RESULTING IN INJURIES OR DEATH. PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS FOR A RECALL. I HAVE VIN #'S OF A LOT OF OTHER PEOPLE WHO HAVE HAD THIS ISSUE IF THEY HAVE NOT ALREADY FILED A COMPLAINT. PLEASE GET BACK WITH ME VIA EMAIL. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. DT *TS
