Buying a used 2019 Mazda MX-5? Check these 2 recalls first
The 2019 Mazda MX-5 has 2 recalls: fuel pump failure that may stall the engine and airbags that may deploy too forcefully. Both concern consequential failures, and repair records should address each individually. Its 11 unverified owner complaints include 3 electrical system reports and 2 each involving steering, service brakes and the fuel system. Complaint records list 2 crashes and 2 injuries; the supplied figures do not establish that either recall issue 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 fuel pump recall.
- Request documentation of the airbag recall repair.
- Ask about electrical faults, steering or brake problems and fuel-system repairs.
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Mazda dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
