What is wrong

On certain vehicles, damage inside the antilock brake system (ABS) hydraulic control unit (HCU) could cause an increase in brake pedal travel and reduced braking.

Why it matters

Reduced braking can cause extended stopping distances and increase the risk of a crash.

What the dealer will do

Mazda will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to inspect the brake ABS HCU, and replace it if necessary.

2 March 2023

Transport Canada lists: CX 50 2023

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, a Mazda Genuine Accessory trailer hitch wire harness may have been installed incorrectly. As a result, the wire harness could become loose or detach and be damaged by contact with nearby components like the exhaust system. If this happens, the trailer lights and/or brakes may not work. Note: This recall is to inspect all CX-50 vehicles produced before January 17, 2023 to determine if they are equipped with a Mazda Genuine Accessory trailer hitch harness kit. The kit may have been ordered and installed at the time of a vehicle purchase or purchased separately from a dealer as an aftermarket accessory.

Why it matters

A loss of trailer lights and/or brakes could increase the risk of a crash.

What the dealer will do

Mazda will notify owners by mail and instruct you to bring your vehicle or your purchased harness kit to a dealership to inspect and, if necessary, replace the trailer hitch wire harness.
