Every Suzuki Safety Recall In The UK, By Model And Year, With What Each Fault Means And How To Get It Fixed

Suzuki has 90 UK safety recalls in DVSA records, including 20 since 2020. The most common recent faults involve brakes, fuel leaks and wheels and tyres. Enter your registration to check your Suzuki; you won't usually pay for a recall repair at a franchised Suzuki dealer.¹

The Suzuki recalls most likely to affect UK owners involve brakes and fuel vapour. The largest, R/2022/267, replaced a check valve in the brake vacuum system on the Baleno, S-Cross, Swift, Swift Sport and Vitara, covering 71,508 vehicle-records, because the wrong design and material could reduce braking assistance. In 2025 Suzuki recalled 51,275 S-Cross and Vitara vehicle-records to replace the evaporative emission canister, which could crack and leak fuel vapour (R/2025/127); see fuel leak recalls. Smaller recent recalls include a steering shaft nut that could loosen on the Ignis and Swift (R/2025/050), which is worth booking promptly, and an emissions correction on older S-Cross and Vitara models (R/2021/059). Suzuki's rate per car on the road is close to the average for major brands, and its recalls tend to arrive a couple of years after a model's launch, so check again even if your car has been clear before. Any Suzuki dealer can check your VIN.
