Consumer Description

THIS VEHICLE "STALLED OUT" WHEN COMING TO A STOP SIGN ABOUT 8 MILES FROM THE DEALERSHIP ON THE FIRST DAY OF OWNERSHIP. EVER SINCE THAT TIME, IT STALLS AT RANDOM AND HAS ERRATIC IDLE ISSUES. SOMETIMES IT JUST (SHUTS DOWN) FOR NO REASON WHEN COMING TO A STOP SIGN. AND WHEN COMING TO A STOP MOST OF THE TIME IT WILL IDLE DOWN FROM 1500 RPMS TO ABOUT 1000 RPMS THEN IN ABOUT 2 SECONDS IT COMES BACK TO 1500 RPMS. THIS CONDITION VERY POSSIBLY "COULD BE A SAFETY ISSUE" THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESS TO THE MANUFACTURER (KAWASAKI)... I DID CONTACT THEIR CUSTOMER SERVICE DEPT AND TOLD THEM ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND THEY HAVE NEVER GOT BACK WITH ME ON THIS ISSUE. THIS STALLING COULD COME AT A VERY CRITICAL TIME AND IT COULD CAUSE A PERSON TO GET HIT WITH ANOTHER VEHICLE WHEN THE ENGINE IS TOTALLY STALLED OR DEAD. *TR
