HOT OFF THE FAX. SUZUKI MOTOR CORP. has determined that during the assembly process of 2005 king quads, use of an inproper tie rod adjustment procedure may have caused the tie rod end housing on some ATVs to become damaged. As a result of the damage, a portion of the rubber boot surrounding the area where the attachment shaft comes out of the housing could lose its seal, allowing water/debris to enter the housing and accelerate wear and eventully lead to separation from ball and socket. look in mail for your recall notice steve

 

I copied this from High Lifter. This is a post from Steve Stiller who owns or runs a Suzuki dealership.

Apparently it's only the tie rod ends that are part of the recall.

I need to get mine in to the dealer, I have not done any of the recalls yet. Roost, did you have them adjust your valves?

Do those tie rods look beefier than the stock/originals?
