Suzuki "Eiger" ATV

## Hazards

Suzuki Motor Corporation has determined that the Eiger automatic ATVs were produced with an internal manufacturing flaw. This flaw could cause the crankshaft to break during operation. A broken crankshaft will interrupt power transfer from the engine to the transmission and the drive wheels, leaving the driver stranded away from his or her base of operation.

## Manufacturer(s)

American Suzuki Motor Corporation, of Brea, Calif.

## Retailer(s)

Suzuki dealers nationwide sold these ATVs, from September through mid-October 2001, for between $4,400 and $5,200.

## Description

The Suzuki "Eiger" LT-A400K2 and LT-A400FK2 (two and four-wheel drive) ATVs have automatic transmissions. These models carry the identifications "Suzuki" and "Eiger" on both sides of the bodywork, roughly inboard of the operator's knee location. The ATVs are available in both red and green.
