Under high load conditions, the ball joint casing may break, which may cause the ball joint to detach from the lower arm. This may result in a loss of steering control, increasing the risk of an accident and injury.

Mazda Australia will contact all affected owners. Consumers should return affected vehicles to their preferred Mazda Dealer for the replacement of the front lower control arms at no charge.

Consumers who require further information should contact Mazda Customer Support on 1800 034 411.
