Buying a used 2019 Mazda CX-3? Check these 2 recalls first
Two recalls apply: a fuel pump failure that can stall the engine, rated high, and a rearview camera image that can flicker. Owner feedback is moderate — 27 unverified complaints filed with NHTSA, one involving a crash, none reporting fire or injury. Electrical system leads those reports at nine, with steering next at five; neither cluster matches an open recall, and complaints are unconfirmed. The fuel pump recall is the one worth confirming was performed.
Before you buy
- Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
- Confirm the fuel pump recall was completed and ask about any stalling or hard-start history
- Check the rearview camera for flicker in reverse, in both bright and low light
- Given the steering-related complaints, note any pulling, play or noise from the steering on the test drive
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Mazda dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
