Question
Answer
Will I be charged for any recall work carried out on my vehicle?

No, all recall work will be carried out at no cost.

How will I know if my vehicle is affected by a recall?

If you purchased your Suzuki from a Suzuki dealer your details will have been passed to Suzuki Australia Pty Ltd who will then write to you to advise that your vehicle is affected by a safety recall. If you did not purchase your Suzuki from a Suzuki dealer then you will need to advise Suzuki Australia Pty Ltd that you are the new owner of the vehicle, by submitting the details on the transfer of warranty card located at the rear of the Warranty and Service Record Booklet or advising your local Suzuki dealer. If you are unsure if your vehicle is affected by a safety recall then your local Suzuki dealer will be able to check this for you.

What is a safety recall?

If a vehicle manufacturer detects a concern on a vehicle that may cause a safety related issue they may undertake a vehicle safety recall whereby they try to locate every affected vehicle in order to have faults rectified, at no cost to the owners, at Authorised Suzuki dealers. Additionally, from time to time Suzuki identify areas where the ownership experience can be improved and may carry out small modifications to improve reliability or function. In Australia, car recalls are operated under a code of practice agreed between FCAI and the car makers. FCAI operates a website which contains detailed information on vehicle recalls in Australia.

Is the warranty transferrable between owners?

The standard Suzuki warranty applies to the vehicle and is therefore transferable between owners. Transfer of warranty to a subsequent owner requires completion of the transfer of warranty card located at the rear of the Warranty and Service Record Booklet. If your Suzuki has an extended warranty, please consult the terms and conditions of this agreement for further details.

Something has failed on my Suzuki. Is it covered under warranty?

This will depend on the cause of the failure. Your Authorised Suzuki dealer will be able to advise you further, which will involve the inspection of your vehicle. All warranty repairs shall only be carried out by an Authorised Suzuki Dealer.

What is an environmental charge?

Toxic substances found in cars include oil, antifreeze, brake fluid and batteries. These substances must be disposed of correctly, often involving temporarily storing them in approved bins. The waste disposal specialists who collect the contents of the bins have to maintain registered vehicles, premises and facilities appropriate for these substances. The licence to carry this out is expensive, with the dealerships themselves incurring significant costs referred to as an environmental charge.
