Buying a used 2020 Mazda CX-30? Check these 3 recalls first
The launch year has three recalls: front brake components that can loosen, a fuel leak affecting all-wheel-drive versions, and a power liftgate that can lower on its own. Two of the three are rated high. NHTSA has 33 unverified owner complaints, one involving a crash and none reporting fire or injury; service brakes, electrical and fuel or propulsion are the most common categories, which overlaps with the brake and fuel recalls.
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.
- Ask if the front brake recall was done and have the front brakes inspected for loose hardware
- If it is all-wheel drive, confirm the fuel leak recall repair and check for fuel odor
- Open and close the power liftgate several times and confirm it holds position
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Mazda dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
