Recalls, owner-reported complaints, investigations and safety data

Data refreshed

Owner complaintsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

Safety recallsA safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.
0
InvestigationsNHTSA opens an investigation to examine whether a safety defect may exist. An open investigation is not a determination that a defect exists, and many investigations close without a recall. Investigations can, however, lead to one.
0
Crash or fire reportedComplaints whose submitter recorded that a crash or a fire occurred. These are the reporter's own answers on the NHTSA form, not verified findings.

While driving, the panoramic sunroof suddenly exploded outward without any impact from road debris or another object. The glass shattered unexpectedly, creating a safety hazard from falling glass and the sudden loud noise. I believe the failure may have been caused by pressure inside the cabin or a defect in the sunroof glass or its installation. There were no visible signs that the vehicle struck anything before the glass shattered.

SERVICE BRAKES

CSP14 – 2024-2026 CX-90 Subject: Mazda Rear Brake Pad Customer Service Program Limited Warranty Extension – (CSP14 – CX-90 models) - Phase 1 Mailing – May 2026 In late April we announced two Customer Service Programs (CSP14 & CSP15) where certain vehicles are covered under these two Limited Warranty Extensions, (defined as “Covered Vehicle”); 2024-2026 CX-90 (CSP14) and 2025-2026 CX-70 (CSP15) produced November 18, 2025 and prior. Owner Notification: We are pleased to announce the first phase of Owner Letters will mail on May 29, 2026, to approximately 18,000 owners in campaign CSP14. As stated in our prior communication, we will send subsequent dealer emails with future phased mailings planned throughout Summer 2026. We have also released the Repair Procedure under TSB 04-003/26, the Parts & Warranty information and updated all dealer-facing FAQ documents. ATTENTION ALL DEALERS - Vehicles to be repaired: Due to limited parts supply only the vehicles in this notice can be repaired. To help your Mazda dealer staff identify which vehicles can be repaired we have created an Excel-based VIN look-up tool in Mazda Global Service Support (MGSS) under this campaign. Please enter the VIN in the tool if the customer does not have their parts available letter to confirm the vehicle can be repaired under this CSP. At this time, remaining customers in CSP14 and CSP15 must wait to receive notice that parts are available. Key Benefits of the Customer Service Program-Extended Warranty Coverage for Rear Brake Squeal: Mazda is expanding the standard brake pad coverage from 1-year/12,000 miles to 3-years/36,000 miles to cover repairs related to rear brake squeal. The owner is eligible for a one‑time replacement of redesigned rear brake pads at no cost if the brake squeal symptom matches a Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) which will be published prior to sending the Second notification. The redesigned brake pads will be covered under the vehicle’s original 3-year/36,000-mile warranty, or 1 year/12,000 miles from installation whichever provides longer coverage.

The changes are noted in Red. 09-017/26 05/20/26 DESCRIPTION Some customers may complain that a rattling noise is heard from the second seat while driving under various vehicle speeds and road conditions. This is caused by the hinge cover of the second seat becoming deformed, resulting in looseness and a rattling noise. To eliminate this concern, the structure of the second seat hinge cover was revised to increase strength and prevent deformation. REPAIR PROCEDURE 1. Verify the customer concern. 2. Replace the armrest hinge cover with the improved part according to the procedure below.

SA-050-26

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

DESCRIPTION Some vehicles may continue to display the recall notification "IMPORTANT NOTICE. VIEW VEHICLE STATUS MONITOR FOR DETAILS" on the center display even after the recall has been completed. NOTE: Once the warranty claim for the recall campaign is approved by Mazda Japan, the recall notification will be automatically removed via Connected Services on the following day or later. This condition may occur if the Connected Services subscription was canceled while the recall notification was still active. ACTION TO BE TAKEN If you encounter the situation above, use MDARS to manually remove the center display recall notification. Note: MDARS can only remove the recall notification when MCVV shows no CV contract.

Manufacturers file copies of the bulletins they send to dealers with NHTSA. These often describe diagnostic or repair procedures for a known condition. They are not recalls: repairs described in a bulletin are usually only free if the vehicle is still under warranty or the manufacturer has extended coverage.
