Recall 21V299 affects 270 2019-2020 Suzuki UH200 motorcycles for speedometer assembly corrosion. Repair is free at any franchised Suzuki dealer.
Suzuki is recalling 270 2019-2020 UH200 motorcycles because corrosion in the speedometer assembly resistors can cut power to the wheel speed sensor, stopping the speedometer and odometer from displaying information. Without a working speedometer, the operator will not know vehicle speed, increasing crash risk; Suzuki dealers will complete the recall repair free of charge.

What's wrong?
The speedometer assembly on 2019-2020 Suzuki UH200 motorcycles houses the speed display and odometer display. It receives a signal from the wheel speed sensor, which reads wheel movement and sends that information to the instrument panel. The speedometer shows road speed, and the odometer records distance traveled.
Inside the speedometer assembly, the wheel speed sensor power supply circuit uses resistors to carry electrical power. On affected motorcycles, sulfur gas released from the rubber boot over the wire harness coupler can react with those resistors and corrode them. Once corrosion creates poor electrical continuity, power stops reaching the wheel speed sensor. Without that power, the sensor signal does not reach the speedometer assembly, so the speedometer and odometer stop working.
There is no warning sign before failure. The first thing an owner is likely to notice is that the speedometer or odometer is no longer displaying information while riding.
Who's affected?
The same speedometer assembly is tied to the 2019 and 2020 UH200 model years.

A matching year and model does not guarantee inclusion. Check your VIN to confirm whether this recall applies to your specific scooter.
What's the safety risk?
Without a working speedometer, you cannot confirm vehicle speed, which increases the risk of a crash. If the speedometer is not showing vehicle speed, avoid guessing your speed and schedule the dealer repair promptly. Repair is free at any franchised Suzuki dealer.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2019-2020 Suzuki UH200 is included in this recall.
- Contact your nearest franchised Suzuki dealer to schedule the free speedometer assembly replacement that restores speedometer and odometer display.
- Bring the recall notice if Suzuki mailed one. If not, reference recall number 21V299 when you call.
- Avoid riding if the speedometer or odometer stops displaying information; use another vehicle until the dealer repair is complete.
What happens at the repair
At the dealer, a Suzuki technician replaces the speedometer assembly on the 2019-2020 UH200. The replacement parts and labor are free under the recall. This repair addresses corrosion in the speedometer assembly resistors that can cut power to the wheel speed sensor and stop the speedometer and odometer from showing information. Suzuki lists a separate customer reimbursement plan for owners who paid for this same repair before the recall work. Ask Suzuki customer service or the dealer service desk how to submit prior repair documentation under that plan.
