Buying a used 2025 Mazda CX-50? Check these 4 recalls first
A critical recall covers front suspension bolts that may be loose, and a high-rated one covers airbag software that can deploy an airbag incorrectly. Two medium items involve a camera that disables automatic braking and an accessory trailer hitch that can fall off. NHTSA shows 47 unverified owner complaints for a recent model year, led by power train at 11, then service brakes and forward collision avoidance at eight each; three crashes and four injuries are reported among them.
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 front suspension bolt recall was completed before driving, and have the front suspension inspected
- Verify the airbag software update and the camera software fix for automatic braking were applied
- Ask about any transmission or drivetrain complaints, and check that an accessory trailer hitch, if present, was addressed
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Mazda dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
