Example complaints

Transmission and drivetrain: “2000 Suzuki Intruder vl 1500 lc pops out of 4th gear and goes into a false neutral. Every time I ride about every 3rd or 4th time I shift to 4th gear. This became a problem about 4000mi and continued to worsen . There is 13000mi on the bike now. When accelerating on an entrance ramp to a highway it will pop out of 4th gear causing the engine to rev very high, cause instability, and loose speed. This is a very dangerous situation when trying to merge with traffic.”

NHTSA complaint #10025611, filed 2003-07, 4,000 miles

Fuel system: “The fuel tank under the seat cracked and leaked. The crack is always located on the upper right mount area. It's a small hairline crack at first and difficult to see. The problem is well documented on the lc/c90 delphi forum. Fuel runs out of the tank causing a potential fire problem. I used jb weld to correct the problem. Other had have had a new tank installed which can crack too. This is a very common problem with Intruder 1500 lc's.”
