I received a letter from Suzuki announcing a Ignition Switch Replacement Program for certain 2006 & 2007 KQ 700s and 2007,LT-A400,Lt-F400F and 2007 & 2008 LT-A450X ATVs.

Suzuki has received field reports of a engine no-starting condition or stalling due to a malfunctioning ignition switch. Suzuki dealers will replace this switch free of charge.

I am glad you found this,,,because mine has been doing this same thing...every now and then,,I turn on the key to and ...Nothing.... I turn it back off and on and then it works... I will call my dealer today....

I just talked to my dealer and they said the new ignition systems are on order and being shipped now.... I am gonna bring mine in next week for the replacement....

Ya we are going to get the new ECMs and ignition switch's in the next few days,.... all though we have never had a problem with the switch or run down battery's from the ECM,...I keep them on a trickle charger all the time. But what the hell they are free so I will get them.

... I don't blame you ...Free is a great price...

well' i just got my recall letter from suzuki. im verry impressed with the service of suzuki.
i wished polaris could step up to the plate and maybe do some recalls on long time problem's.

Yeah...Got mine in yesterday to...Gonna load her up today and take it to the dealer... They said it takes about 30 minutes to replace and you are on your way...

Hey Lucky#7,
I contacted my dealer and he said I would need to know the VIN # and then he would run it through the Suzuki system. Does that sound correct?

actualy, he did not ask me for the vin #, just my name and address.

Your name or address is tied to the invoice inside their computer systems ....which has the VIN in your profile....so all he needs is name, social security number, etc... to tie it all together..

I got the same recall notice for my '07 700 KQ, and it helps to make sense of the stalling that happened twice in one day last summer, but never happened before and hasn't happened since. Both times I was going about 45 mph and the motor stopped running all of a sudden and everything locked up, luckily I was on a gravel road both times so no damage was done. It concerned me at the time, but obviously not enough to make me take it in to get looked at. And since it hasn't happened again, I figured it was just a on-time "ghost in the system" and no harm done. But now I will take it in, since it will be a free fix.

I AM SO GLAD YA'LL HAVE GREAT DEALERS I GOT MY NOTICE ABOUT A MONTH AGO AND EVERYTIME I CALL MY DEALER THEY SAY THEY HAVE NO IDEA WHAT I AM TALKING ABOUT THEN I READ THE NOTICE THEN THEY TELL ME THAT THEY HAVE TO ORDER IT ........I LOVE MY EIGER BUT THE DEALER SUCKS.

Dropped off son's 450 at the shop this morning. Ignition was getting pretty bad...was often taking several off/on jiggles of the switch before things powered up.

I finally got around to making an appointment to get my 450 in last week. I brought it in and to my suprise, they actually had my appointment in the system! Not only that, they were done in about 45 min. Not bad!
For the record, I have not been having any difficuly with the old switch, but I had to take advantage of free preventative maintanance.
It beats being on the side of a mountain with a dead machine.

I called and dropped mine off Saturday. The svc guy said the parts were in stock and it was a 45min job. It would be ready Sat or Monday. well here it is going on Wednesday and no call. Which is about what I expected. As long as it is ready by Friday I am happy.
