NHTSA recall 25V418000
Electrical System, Engine And Engine Cooling · Mazda Motor Corp.
Details
What's wrong: The transmission gear shifter can be moved from neutral to drive without pressing the brake pedal.
Why it matters: Shifting into gear without the brake pedal depressed can result in unexpected vehicle movement, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix: Dealers will replace the engine control module (ECM) and reprogram the hybrid control unit (hcu) and power control unit (pcu), free of charge. Interim owner notification letters were mailed August 15, 2025. A second notice will be sent once the remedy becomes available, anticipated late summer 2025.
