Mazda6 Lighting Recalls Three federal campaigns, in NHTSA’s own words

Dean McCrary Mazda has three NHTSA campaigns open on the Mazda6 lighting system, model years 2003–2007, 2017. Here is NHTSA’s own description of the most recent one, 16V753000:

Mazda North American Operations (Mazda) is recalling certain model year 2017 Mazda6 vehicles manufactured August 12, 2016, to September 28, 2016 and equipped with optional accessory fog lights. Due to an incorrect combination switch being installed, the turn signals may not automatically cancel by the rotation of the steering wheel. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."

The repair is free — parts and labor, at any Mazda dealer, for the life of the vehicle. Check your VIN below to confirm your Mazda6 is included, or jump straight to what to do next.

Is This Mazda6 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 lighting ones on this page.

Or call and read the VIN to our service team.

What NHTSA says the defect is

Mazda North American Operations (Mazda) is recalling certain model year 2017 Mazda6 vehicles manufactured August 12, 2016, to September 28, 2016 and equipped with optional accessory fog lights. Due to an incorrect combination switch being installed, the turn signals may not automatically cancel by the rotation of the steering wheel. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."

The risk NHTSA states

A vehicle continuously driven with the turn signal flashing may result in confusion to other drivers, increasing the risk of a crash.

The remedy NHTSA states

Mazda will notify owners, and dealers will replace the combination switch, free of charge. The recall began December 2016. Owners may contact Mazda customer service at 1-800-222-5500. Mazda's number for this recall is 0316J.

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.

Mazda6 Lighting Recall Questions

Does one of these campaigns cover my Mazda6?⌄

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 Mazda6 recall hub reads the federal database live every time it loads, so it is the current position; this page is the detail behind it.
