The short version

Mazda North American Operations reported a problem with the electrical system instrument cluster/panel. Here is what owners need to know.

WHAT

Due to incorrect programing, the passenger air bag deactivation indicator light may erroneously turn off although the passenger air bag is deactivated. In addition, the seat belt status indicators for both the front passenger seat and/or rear seats may erroneously turn off although the front passenger and/or rear seat belts are unfastened.

WHY IT MATTERS

Incorrect indicator warning lights may lead the driver and/or passengers to be unaware of deactivated air bags or unfastened seat belts, increasing the risk of injury.

WHAT TO DO

Mazda will notify owners, and dealers will replace the passenger air bag/seat belt status indicator assembly, free of charge.
