NHTSA recall 24V695000
Air Bags · Mazda Motor Corp.
Details
What's wrong: A software error in the air bag control module may cause the front air bags to deploy with excessive force during a crash. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 208, "occupant crash protection."
Why it matters: An air bag that deploys with excessive force can increase the risk of injury during a crash.
The fix: Dealers will update the sophisticated air bag sensor (sas) control module software, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed November 7, 2024.
