2009–2010 Mazda MAZDA5 recall: fuel system
⚠️ What's wrong
Mazda is recalling certain model year 2009-2010 MAZDA5 vehicles manufactured from june 29, 2009, through april 28, 2010. Water may not have been removed completely from the harness connector of the fuel pump due to variations in the fuel tank leak check process performed before vehicle assembly. The connector pin may corrode, potentially causing the pin to break.
💥 The risk
This could lead to an inoperative fuel pump, engine stall and the inability to restart the engine increasing the risk of a crash.
🔧 The fix
Dealers will inspect the fuel pump connector and if necessary it will be replaced and the harness will be repaired free of charge. The safety recall began on december 6, 2010. Owners may contact mazda customer assistance center at 1-800-222-5500.
Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
