Kawasaki Boat Recalls

15 US Coast Guard recall campaigns are on record for Kawasaki covering model years 1991–2017. 1 of them is still marked unresolved in the Coast Guard's records.

What this list can and cannot tell you. The Coast Guard records a recall against the manufacturer and model year — it does not publish the hull numbers each campaign covers. So this page tells you a recall exists for Kawasaki; it is a reason to investigate, never a verdict that a particular boat is or is not affected. Confirm with the manufacturer or a dealer using your own hull number.

Source: the US Coast Guard recall database. Each recall number above links to its official record. The Coast Guard does not publish a defect description or severity rating for these campaigns, so none is shown here.

Check a specific boat. Enter its 12-character hull identification number and the decoder will tell you the builder, the year it was made, and whether any Coast Guard recall matches that builder and model year.

Frequently asked questions

Does a recall mean this boat is unsafe?

No. A recall campaign is filed against a manufacturer and model year, not against individual hulls. It means a defect was reported for that builder's boats in that year, and it is a reason to ask the manufacturer or a dealer about your specific hull number.

How many Kawasaki recalls are still open?

1 of the 15 campaigns on this page is marked unresolved by the Coast Guard. "Closed" means the Coast Guard considers the campaign complete, not that every boat was repaired.

How do I check my own boat?

Use the free HIN decoder. It reads your hull number, identifies the builder and model year, and flags any recall on record that matches.
