Recall Summary Suzuki is recalling 143 LT-A700X vehicles because the steering tie rod ends may be misaligned, which can damage the seals and allow dirt to enter the joint, potentially causing steering failure.

- Product
- Vehicles: SUZUKI LT-A700X. Units affected: 143
- Reason
- It has been identified that if the steering tie rod ends have been incorrectly aligned either at build or in use the seal which protects the ball-joint may be forced out of position allowing the ingress of contaminants ultimately resulting in early failure of the joint with possible loss of directional control.
