Suzuki power steering pump belt tension adjuster pulley has an outer portion that is made of plastic.
The short version
Suzuki Motor of America, Inc. reported a problem with the steering hydraulic power assist system. Here is what owners need to know.
The power steering pump belt tension adjuster pulley has an outer portion that is made of plastic. Repeated heat stress can cause the plastic material to deteriorate, causing pieces of the pulley to break off.
Broken pieces of the pulley can get caught between the pulley and the drive belt, causing the drive belt to come off, resulting in a sudden loss of power steering assist, increasing the risk of a crash.
Suzuki will notify owners, and dealers will replace the power steering pump drive belt tension adjuster pulley, free of charge.
