Mazda CX-5 Fuel System Recalls Two federal campaigns, in NHTSA’s own words

Dean McCrary Mazda has two NHTSA campaigns open on the Mazda CX-5 fuel system, model years 2014–2016, 2018–2019. Here is NHTSA’s own description of the most recent one, 21V875000:

Mazda North American Operations (Mazda) is recalling certain 2018 Mazda3, Mazda6, 2019 CX-3, 2018-2019 MX-5, CX-5, CX-9, and 2019-2020 Mazda2 vehicles. The impeller inside the low-pressure fuel pump may crack and deform, potentially causing the fuel pump to fail.

The repair is free — parts and labor, at any Mazda dealer, for the life of the vehicle. Check your VIN below to confirm your CX-5 is included, or jump straight to what to do next.

Is This CX-5 Included?

Enter the 17-character VIN and we query NHTSA in real time. The answer comes back for that one vehicle, and it covers every open campaign on it — not only the fuel system ones on this page.

Or call and read the VIN to our service team.

What To Do From Here

Four steps, in order.

Run the VIN

Use the checker above, or nhtsa.gov/recalls. Both read the same federal record, and both answer for the one vehicle rather than the nameplate.

Book the repair

Schedule online or call . Give us the campaign number and we will confirm the parts are in hand before you come in.

Ask if parts are short

A campaign is sometimes announced before the remedy parts reach dealerships. If that is the case we will say so and put you on the list, rather than book a visit that cannot be completed.

Keep the paperwork

We give you written proof the campaign was closed. It is worth having: a buyer checking the federal record later sees the campaign, and the paperwork is what shows it was dealt with.

Mazda CX-5 Fuel System Recall Questions

Does one of these campaigns cover my CX-5?⌄

Only a VIN answers that. A campaign covers a build range, so two vehicles of the same model year can be treated differently. The checker on this page queries NHTSA for one vehicle and returns every open campaign on it.

What does the repair cost?⌄

Nothing. A federal safety recall remedy is performed at no charge to the owner — parts and labor — for the life of the vehicle, whatever the mileage and wherever the vehicle was bought.

Why is the wording on this page so formal?⌄

Because it is not ours. The defect, risk and remedy text is NHTSA’s, reproduced without edit. Rewriting a safety notice into friendlier language would change what it says, and we would rather you read the original than our version of it.

Could something have changed since this page was written?⌄

Yes. This page was checked against NHTSA on 2026-08-09, and campaigns are amended and superseded. The Mazda CX-5 recall hub reads the federal database live every time it loads, so it is the current position; this page is the detail behind it.
