Recalls: Suzuki Mk.7 Swift
2017-19 Suzuki Mk.7 Swift: pre-tensioner and airbags may deploy on door closure
In June 2019, recall campaign SSR19 was issued for Suzuki Mk.7 Swift vehicles that were available for sale in Australia from 1 March 2017 to 10 June 2019. Due to incorrect software in the airbag controller (SDM), the side airbags, curtain airbags and seatbelt pre-tensioner may be inadvertently deployed when the rear door was slammed shut. The airbag deployment posed a risk of injury to vehicle occupants. For the VINs of the recalled vehicles, please see PRA 2019/17607 and PRA 2019/17610.
2017-21 Suzuki A2L310 Swift and A2L414 Swift Sport: loss of braking assistance
In September 2022, recall campaign SSR28 was issued for 2017-21 Suzuki A2L310 Swift and A2L414 Swift Sport vehicles. Due to a manufacturing defect, the valve between the engine and the vacuum assist brake booster may swell under certain conditions. As a result, power braking assistance may be lost and increased brake pedal effort may be required to reduce vehicle speed and bring the vehicle to rest. Although the brake system would remain functional, this condition increased the risk of a collision and therefore injury to vehicle occupants and other road users. For the VINs of the recalled vehicles, please see REC-005514 and, for Queensland vehicles, REC-005515.
2022-2023 Suzuki Mk.7 Swift: steering shaft nut may not be tightened
In February 2025, recall campaign SSR31 was issued for 2022-2023 Suzuki Mk.7 Swift and Swift Sport vehicles. Due to a manufacturing defect, the steering shaft nut may not have been tightened to specifications. This could cause the steering wheel to become loose, resulting in a loss of vehicle control. A loss of vehicle control could increase the risk of a collision and injury to vehicle occupants and/or other road users. To fix, an authorised Suzuki dealer was to check and re-torque the steering shaft nut. For the VINs of the recalled vehicles, please see REC-006262 and, for Queensland-delivered vehicles, REC-006259.
