Is my product affected?

2014 MAZDA MAZDA6; 2015 MAZDA MAZDA6

  • Brand MAZDA

Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.

What happened

Mazda is recalling certain 2014-2015 Mazda6 vehicles manufactured between October 25, 2012, and October 10, 2014, because their tire pressure monitoring systems may fail to alert drivers when all four tires gradually lose pressure at the same time. This defect creates a risk that drivers could operate their vehicles with severely under-inflated tires, which can lead to sudden tire failure and increase the likelihood of a crash.

To address this issue, Mazda will notify owners and dealers will update the TPMS software at no cost. The recall process began on December 10, 2014. Affected owners should contact Mazda customer service at 1-800-222-5500 to schedule an appointment.

Details from the source

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."
