- Campaign:
- 07V307000 on 07/18/2007
- Component:
- Power train:manual transmission
- Affected:
- 14,251
- Defect:
- On certain vehicles equipped with 5-speed manual transmissions, due to improper shape of the clip, the retaining clip that keeps the gear shift cable attached to the gear shift lever can contact the gear shift lever housing if excessive lateral force is applied when shifting to first gear.
- Consequence:
- Repeated shifting in this manner can eventually cause the retaining clip to break. if the retaining clip breaks, the shift cable can become disconnected from the shift lever, resulting in loss of the ability to change transmission gears.
- Correction:
- Dealers will replace the gear shift cable retaining clip with a clip that has a different shape. the recall began on august 13, 2007. owners may contact american suzuki at 1-800-934-0934.
