Defect description

Suzuki Motor of America, Inc. (Suzuki) is recalling certain model year 2013, 2015, and 2017 GW250 motorcycles. Water may enter the main wiring harness at the rear brake light switch connectors, possibly corroding the brake light switch.

Owners may contact Suzuki customer service at 1-714-572-1490. Suzuki's number for this recall is 2A66.
