Mazda North America Operations (Mazda) is recalling certain 2005-2006 Mazda MPV vehicles sold, or ever registered, in the states of Alaska, Colorado, Connecticut, Idaho, Iowa, Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Montana, New Hampshire, New York, North Dakota, Oregon, Rhode Island, South Dakota, Utah, Vermont, Washington, Wisconsin, and Wyoming. On July 9, 2019 this recall was expanded to include certain 2005-2009 RX-8 vehicles that were previously recalled under 17V-011 but have not yet been repaired. These vehicles are equipped with certain air bag inflators assembled as part of the passenger frontal air bag modules used as original equipment or replacement equipment. In the event of a crash necessitating deployment of the passenger frontal air bag, these inflators may explode due to propellant degradation occurring after long-term exposure to absolute humidity and temperature cycling.
Consequence: An inflator explosion may result in metal fragments striking the vehicle occupants resulting in serious injury or death.
Remedy: Mazda will notify owners, and dealers will replace the front passenger air bag inflator with an alternate inflator, free of charge. The recall began July 6, 2018 for MPV vehicles. The recall began July 9, 2019 for RX-8 vehicles. Owners may contact Mazda customer service at 1-800-222-5500, option 4. Mazda's number for this recall is 2618F.

IN AUGUST OF 2016 RECEIVED A NOTICE FROM MAZDA STATING MAZDA DECIDED THAT A DEFECT WHICH RELATES TO MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY EXISTS IN MAZDA 2005 MPV. THE RECALL NOTICE CONTINUES TO STATE DO NOT DRIVE THE VEHICLE BECAUSE HIGH LEVELS OF HUMIDITY CAN CAUSE THE PASSENGER FRONTAL AIR BAG TO RUPTURE AND COULD RESULT IN METAL FRAGMENTS STRIKING THE DRIVER OR OTHER VEHICLE OCCUPANTS RESULTING IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH. ON 10-31-16, I CALLED OAK TREE MAZDA, SAN JOSE TO SCHEDULE THE APPOINTMENT.

CALLED AGAIN AND WAS IN ESSENCE TOLD THE SAME INFORMATION TAT THEY WOULD CALL ME BACK WITH INFORMATION. PROVIDED THEM WITH MY CORRECT PHONE NUMBER AND AS OF THIS DATE, 2-9-17 HAVE NOT RECEIVED A CALL BACK TO SCHEDULE MY APPOINTMENT. PLEASE ASSIST ME IN GETTING THIS ISSUE FIXED SO WE CAN DRIVE OUR VEHICLE. I AM NOT SURE IF THIS INVOLVES THE "TAKATA RECALL" AS OUR PAPERWORK JUST INDICATES, FRONT AIR BAG INFLATOR.
TAKATA RECALL HAS AFFECTED MY VEHICLE AND AFTER 7 MONTHS THE COMPANY NOR THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP HAS DONE ANYTHING TO ADDRESS THE DEFECTIVE PART. WE HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED TO NOT ALLOW ANYONE TO RIDE IN THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE AND THIS IS TERRIBLY OBSTRUCTIVE TO OUR TRANSPORTATION NEEDS. I BELIEVE FAR TOO MUCH TIME HAS ELAPSED AND STILL THE COMPANY NOR THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP HAS ADDRESSED THIS VERY SERIOUS ISSUE.

MY VEHICLE IS UNDER NATIONAL RECALL HIGHWAY SAFETY RECALL, DUE TO MANUFACTURING ISSUES. I NEED TO TRADE MY VEHICLE IN AND I'M BEING OVER CHARGED FOR VEHICLES THAT ARE NOT WORRY TO BE ON THE HIGHWAY. I FEEL I SHOULD GET AN MANUFACTURE DISCOUNT ON AN USED/NEW VEHICLE BECAUSE I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR MANUFACTURED MISTAKES AND I SHOULD NOT BE OVER CHARGED FOR VEHICLES THAT ARE NOT WORTHY OF THE PRICE TAG ON THEM. THANK YOU, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

WHEN LOOKING AT MY VEHICLE, I NOTICED GREASE STREAKS DRIPPING FROM A LINE ON MY ALLOY WHEEL. AFTER CLEANING THE GREASE OFF, WE NOTICED A CRACK COMPLETELY THROUGH THE SPOKES ON MY RIM. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS HAS OCCURRED TO MY VEHICLE SINCE WE BOUGHT IT BUT I WAS TOLD THERE IS NOT A PATTERN OF DEFECTS. I WAS TOLD ON BOTH OCCASIONS, AT MAZDA DEALER SERVICE DEPARTMENTS, MY VEHICLE WAS UNSAFE TO DRIVE. MAZDA USA TOLD ME NO PATTERN OF INCIDENTS HAVE OCCURRED AND ITS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE ON THEIR END ALTHOUGH THEIR SERVICE DEPARTMENTS SAY OTHERWISE.
