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

Dean McCrary Mazda has three NHTSA campaigns open on the Mazda6 other systems, model years 2009–2015. Here is NHTSA’s own description of the most recent one, 18V631000:

The front cross member may corrode after exposure to road salt.

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.

SUSPENSION:FRONT:CONTROL ARM

What NHTSA says the defect is

Mazda North American Operations (Mazda) is recalling certain 2009-2010 Mazda Mazda6 vehicles sold, or ever registered in Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, Virginia, West Virginia, Wisconsin and the District of Columbia.

The remedy NHTSA states

Mazda will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the cross member and either install a side member and drain hose and apply wax to protect from rust, or install a drain hose and an improved front cross member, free of charge.

NHTSA 14V6750002014–2015
TIRES:PRESSURE MONITORING AND REGULATING SYSTEMS

What NHTSA says the defect is

Mazda North American Operations (Mazda) is recalling certain model year 2014-2015 Mazda6 vehicles manufactured October 25, 2012, to October 10, 2014. If the pressures of four of the tires on an affected vehicle gradually drop at the same time, the tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) may not warn the driver of the drop in pressure. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 138, "Tire Pressure Monitoring System."

The risk NHTSA states

A vehicle that is driven with under inflated tires may experience a sudden tire failure, increasing the risk of a crash.

The remedy NHTSA states

Mazda will notify owners, and dealers will update the TPMS software, free of charge. The recall began on December 10, 2014. Owners may contact Mazda customer service at 1-800-222-5500.

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 Other Systems 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.
