What is wrong

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.

The risk

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.

The fix

Dealers will repair or replace the fuel pump retaining ring. The recall began on november 3, 2005. Owners may contact suzuki at [removed].
