Suzuki Corporate and the 08 RECALL

[valkyriemc]

Why the heck are some of these dealers having such a hard time understanding this recall ?? This guy can't get his replaced even though it was routed incorrectly and my dealer says they need to change them all even if they are routed correctly. The dealers are supposed to by the "experts", the "professionals" and yet we, the consumer have to do the research and make sure the recall is performed properly. This does not instill much confidence!!!

Thankyou.

Had my recall performed yesterday. Mine was fine all they did was punch the punch the fram at the VIN. My dealer is very good. The senior tech and another tech walked my through everything they were suppose to look for and showed me what it would look like if it was routed wrong. Very thorough and in great detail. I am very lucky to have such a great dealer.

Not sure if your bike is part of the recall.... What I've seen has only been for the USA and Canada bound bikes. Now, this doesn't mean your in the clear I would call Suzuki and double check. You can take a look at this post and see for yourself what to look for. Not to complicated and only takes a few minutes. Hope this helps...

I'm taking mine to the dealer next week to have the recall performed. Basically, I talked to them previously over the phone and convinced them that the cable was mis-routed and that it would need a new ignition switch. I offered to send them photos, but they said they'd believe me because I was familiar with the TSB (thanks to this forum). To make them feel even better, I said I'd cover the cost of the ignition switch, at their cost, if I was wrong. The service manager didn't seem too thrilled about Suzuki allowing only 1.3 hours to perform the work.
Here's a question: Is there anything I can/should do regarding a partial disassembly of any panels or swtich that might make things go easier for the tech? I have to ride about 90 miles to the dealer, and I can put any removed components in a backpack and take them with me. I am willing to do this in order to save time for the both of us.
