Buying a used 2019 Mazda CX-5? Check these 2 recalls first

2 NHTSA recalls · 269 owner complaints on file

This year carries the same two high-severity recalls as the 2018: the Mazda3/Mazda6/CX-5 unexpected engine stall and the fuel pump failure that can also stall the engine. Neither is a stop-driving or park-outside recall. The unverified NHTSA complaint file is notably larger than the 2018's, 269 reports including 7 crashes, 2 fires and 5 injuries. ENGINE leads with 130, but electrical system at 46 and power train at 31 are meaningful secondary clusters.

Before you buy

  1. 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.
  2. Confirm by VIN that both the engine stall and fuel pump recalls were completed, and get the repair order dates
  3. Ask whether the fuel pump has been replaced once or more than once
  4. Test drive long enough to exercise electrical and transmission behavior, given those complaint clusters
  5. Open recalls are repaired free at any Mazda dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
