The leading two-wheeler maker Suzuki has made a huge recall announcement for nearly 4 lakh motorcycles and scooters in India. The two-wheeler models were reportedly recalled due to a faulty high-tension cord connected to the ignition coil.
The recall announcement has reportedly been made for popular models such as the Access 125, Avenis 125, and Burgman Street 125 models. The recall will affect models, which were manufactured between April 30, 2022 and December 3, 2022.

When it comes to the bike segment, the tech-loaded V-Strom 800 DE also falls in the affected category. The model was added due to a faulty rear tyre issue. As per the details shared by the brand, some portion of the tyre tread may separate, causing cracks in it.
