What is wrong

On certain vehicles, a software problem could cause the driver-front and passenger-front airbags to deploy with too much force in certain crashes.

Why it matters

An airbag that inflates with too much force could create an increased risk of injury in a crash.

What the dealer will do

Mazda will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to update the airbag control module software.
