What the ministry says is wrong

前輪の緩衝装置において、ラテラルロッドとアクスルハウジングを結合する締結構造が不適切なため、締結ボルトが緩み、異音やハンドル振動が発生することがある。そのため、そのまま使用を続けると、当該ボルトが脱落し、最悪の場合、かじ取り性能が低下するおそれがある。

What is to be done about it

全車両、前輪の当該結合部にばね座金を追加するとともに、強度を上げた対策ボルトに交換し、改善した規定トルクで再締め付けする。また、市場における整備時に部品が混同されることを防止するため、後輪についても同様の改善措置を実施する。

The two passages above are quoted in Japanese because that is the language the ministry published them in. This site keeps the wording a register had when it was read, and does not translate a safety notice.

This site gathered the record, grouped it by notification number and set it in English around the ministry's own words; the notice itself is unaltered.

The Japanese register on this site

スズキ elsewhere in this register

スズキ is named on 357 notices in the copy of MLIT’s register held here, of which these are the nearest to this one in time.

The same part: 緩衝アーム/ロッド

176 notices in this register name 緩衝アーム/ロッド. A defect that keeps returning under one heading is worth reading as a group rather than one notice at a time.

Reading this against the source

This page is what MLIT published in the recall notices it publishes, kept as it was read. The authority publishes only its current wording; if a notice is rewritten, the earlier version disappears there and is kept here. The whole register is at /japan, and how the reading is done is set out in the method.

This register keeps an index of its own for every maker and every year it holds: Japanese recalls on a Suzuki: 359 in the register, and 396 Japanese vehicle recall notifications filed in 2014.
