And the third recall campaign is not small – almost 44 thousand cars will go to dealers for repairs
A problem with the steering system of the CX-90 crossover forced Mazda to announce a recall campaign: the defect affects 43,752 vehicles, all of which must be taken to a dealer for repair. The problem manifests itself as a sudden increase in effort on the steering wheel while driving, and the root lies in premature wear of the gear responsible for transmitting the amplifier.
Interestingly, Mazda learned about the problem more than a year ago, and already in 2023 the CX-90 received an updated part. But, as it turned out, the problem has not gone away. Therefore, cars manufactured between December 27, 2022 and December 11, 2023 are being recalled in the United States. It is possible that the problem also affects Mazda CX-90 sold in Russia and imported through parallel imports. Owners of such cars may face great difficulties in repair.
In general, the Mazda CX-90 turned out to have quite a few “childhood diseases” that cannot be called trivial. For example, in November 2023, more than 4 thousand CX-90 with a plug-in hybrid powertrain were recalled due to the fact that they suddenly lost power, which is also very unsafe. And in the USA they recalled «soft» hybrid CX-90 due to problems with the cameras of the surround view system.
