The risk
Fuel leakage in the presence of an ignition source may result in a fire.
The fix
American Suzuki will notify owners, and dealers will replace the fuel pump module, free of charge. An interim letter was mailed on March 7, 2013. Owners may contact American Suzuki Customer Relations at 1-[removed].
