Plain-English summary
American Suzuki Motor Corp. is recalling approximately 300 Suzuki 2006 model year Eiger ATVs. The affected models are the LT-A400K6, LT-A400FK6, and LT-F400FK6. These vehicles were sold in red, black, and green at Suzuki ATV dealers nationwide from May 2006 through July 2006 for prices ranging from about $4,500 to $5,300.
The recall is due to a defect in the mounting brackets used to secure the left-front suspension arm to the ATV frame. These brackets may not have been welded completely, which could cause them to break off during riding. If this occurs, the rider could lose control of the ATV and crash, posing a risk of serious injury or death. No injuries have been reported in connection with this defect.
