2007 Suzuki AN400 Problems

Owner-reported complaints filed with NHTSA, grouped by component

Data refreshed

Owner complaintsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

What this page shows

Everything below is an owner-reported complaint submitted to NHTSA about the 2007 Suzuki AN400, grouped by the component NHTSA recorded on the report. These are not confirmed defects, and they are not recalls. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a category with more reports in it is not evidence that a part is defective.

Complaints are reports submitted by owners and drivers to NHTSA. They are not verified and do not establish that a defect exists.

NHTSA ID 10221590 · filed Mar 18, 2008

2007 SUZUKI BURGMAN 400, SQUEAK FROM CLUTCH! WHILE DRIVING STARTING OUT FROM 5 TO 7 MILES PER HOUR THE SQUEAK IS SOMETHING THAT IS ANNOYING THE SQUEAK COMES AND GOES, SOMETIMES LOUDER THAN OTHERS. IT HAS BEEN "GRABBY" SUDDENLY PULLING THE BIKE DOWN AND MAKING A LURCHING EFFECT WHICH IS UNSAFE CONSIDERING THE MOTORCYCLE GOES OVER 75MPH. I HAVE HAD ONE CLUTCH REPLACED WITH A NEW ONE, AND THE REPLACEMENT THEY PUT ON DOES THE SAME THING. SQUEAK! I KNOW THE 2008 BURGMAN 400 HAD A FIVE PLATE CLUTCH, THE BURGMAN 400 2007 ONLY HAS THREE CLUTCH PLATES... I THINK THEY CORRECTED A KNOWN SAFETY ISSUE WITH THE 2008'S BUT ARE NEGLECTING THE SAFETY ON PRIOR MODELS LIKE MINE. I WORRY THAT I WILL BE RIDING AND IT WILL CATCH AND GRAB THROWING ME FROM MY BIKE TO MY DEATH. *TR
