Safety Recall For HV81S & HT81S

Suzuki had announced a safety recall for all Ignis Sport (HV81S) and Swift Sport (HT81S) recently and it cover worldwide on all car manufactured between year 2000-2008. The reason for the recall are mainly on the fire hazard on the ignition switch grease. As the usage of the ignition grease increases over the years, there might be a chance of carbonise and create smoke from the ignition. All owner are urged to visit the local Suzuki dealer for inspection and remedial works.

So far from my search, Suzuki Japan, Australia and Netherlands had issued official safety recall, so for those located there will received their notice soon if you still the 1st owner of the vehicle. Or you might give your local dealer a call to check for vehicle VIN confirmation and booking of inspection time.
