2010 KLX Recall

Kawasaki is recalling about 4,000 Kawasaki 2010 model year KLX110CAF and KLX110DAF off-road motorcycles. The dirt bikes were sold by dealers nationwide from Aug. 2009 through Feb. 2010 for about $2100.

Kawasaki says a faulty housing for the ignition switch can allow water to enter and activate the electric starter unintentionally. This poses a serious hazard of injury or death. No injuries have been reported at the time of this release.

Consumers should stop using these vehicles immediately and contact a local Kawasaki Motorcycle dealer to schedule an appointment for a free repair. The company has attempted to contact all known users.

For more information, consumers can contact Kawasaki toll-free at (866) 802-9381 between 8:30 a.m. and 5 p.m. (PST) Monday through Friday, or visit the firm's website at kawasaki.com.
