Filing in context
The Fuel Hose / Pipe is the most frequently cited component category in this archive, appearing in 62 of its 4,890 filings. This filing is one of 24 Suzuki notifications from 2016 in this archive. For scale, 1,421 of the 4,890 filings in this archive report a larger number of affected vehicles; the vehicles involved here were manufactured over a span of about 1 year and 1 month.
Issue
1. In the power transmission system, the belt-drive pulley is improperly assembled, resulting in insufficient torque on the pulley retaining nut. The nut may loosen during vehicle operation, producing abnormal noise. If the vehicle continues to be operated in this condition, drive force may no longer be transmitted and the vehicle may become inoperable. 2. During the vehicle manufacturing process, a bolt may have been introduced into the engine air cleaner. Vibration during vehicle operation may cause the bolt to migrate to the throttle body, where it may become lodged in the throttle valve. In the worst case, engine speed may fail to decrease. 3. The fuel hose quick-connector joint is improperly engaged due to inadequate fitting during assembly. As a result, fuel may leak from the joint.
Corrective action
1. On all vehicles, torque the belt-drive pulley retaining nut to the specified value. 2. On all vehicles, inspect the air cleaner and throttle body and remove any bolt found. 3. On all vehicles, correctly engage the fuel hose quick-connector joint.

状況
１．動力伝達装置において、ベルト駆動用のプーリの組付け方法が不適切なため、プーリの固定ナットの締付けトルクが不足しているものがある。そのため、走行中にナットが緩み異音が発生し、そのままの状態で使用を続けると、最悪の場合、駆動力を伝えることができず走行不能に至るおそれがある。 ２．車両製造工程において、原動機エアクリーナ内部にボルトが混入したものがある。そのため、走行中の振動等により当該ボルトがスロットルボデーへ移動し、最悪の場合、スロットルバルブにはさまり、原動機の回転数が下がらないおそれがある。 ３．燃料ホースにおいて、継ぎ手部（クイックコネクタ）の嵌合作業が不適切なため、クイックコネクタが正しく嵌合していないものがある。そのため、嵌合部より燃料が漏れるおそれがある。
改善措置
１．全車両、ベルト駆動用のプーリ固定ナットを規定トルクで締付ける。 ２．全車両、エアクリーナとスロットルボデーを点検し、ボルトを発見した場合は取り除く。 ３．全車両、燃料ホースの継ぎ手部（クイックコネクタ）を正しく嵌合する。
