American Suzuki Motor Corp. Recalls All-Terrain Vehicles


The mounting brackets used to secure the left-front suspension arm to the ATV frame may not have been welded completely and could 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.

Only Suzuki 2006 model year LT-A400K6, LT-A400FK6 and LT-F400FK6 model ATVs with certain vehicle identification numbers are included in this recall. Refer to the VIN at www.suzukicycles.com. The vehicle identification number is located on the left rear side of the ATV frame. Eiger, printed in white letters, and QuadRunner and Suzuki are written on the side of the ATV. These ATVs were sold in red, black and green.

Product Liability Terms

 


Today's Terms

Punitive Damages

Definition:
This term refers to damages awarded to a plaintiff over and above compensatory damages, designed to punish the defendant for particularly outrageous and malicious conduct, and to serve as a deterrent to others.

Inadequate Warning

Definition:
Manufacturers not only have a duty to warn, but they may also have to recall a defective product that is already on store shelves. Federal law makes it mandatory to recall certain products, like cars and toys.

BREACH OF WARRANTY

Definition:
If these warranties are breached (if the promises are broken or if the defendants have misrepresented something), then you may claim the theory of Breach of Warranty.
