Buying a used 2024 Mazda MAZDA3? Check these 3 recalls first
The 2024 Mazda3 has 3 recalls involving a camera fault that may disable safety systems, airbags that may not deploy and a backup camera display that may go blank. The camera issues affect separate functions, while the airbag recall warrants its own repair documentation. There are 12 unverified owner complaints, including 5 electrical system reports and 2 forward collision avoidance reports. Complaint records list 2 crashes and 1 injury, without establishing that recalls caused those events.
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.
- Verify completion of the airbag nondeployment recall.
- Confirm repairs for both camera-related recalls.
- Check the backup display and ask about electrical or driver-assistance warnings.
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Mazda dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
