The problem
On certain passenger vehicles, the power steering pump pulley May separate from the power steering pump due to inadequate wall thickness of the pulley.
The risk
This condition can cause the power steering pump drive belt to disconnect resulting in heavy steering, and can lead to engine overheating or to battery discharge and engine stall.
The fix
Dealers will inspect the power steering pump pulley and, if necessary, replace it. The recall began on December 1, 2005. Owners May contact Suzuki at 1-800-934-0934.
