Due to the swelling of the valve in the vacuum pump, the negative pressure of the brake boosters can be temporarily blocked. Consequently, even if the braking system remains functional, the brake pedal must be pressed hard, increasing the risk of an accident.
The Suzuki Swift and Swift Sport vehicles affected by this recall were manufactured between 2015 and 2022.
