CONDITION OF CONCERN

On the subject CX-90 vehicles, certain bolts for the steering intermediate shaft, front ABS wheel speed sensor harnesses or front upper control arms may not have been torqued to proper specification during quality checking activity of assembled vehicles.

May 29, 2023: Mazda began verifying the fastening torque record for other components which were replaced during quality check activities at the assembly plant, to determine if any other components may not have been torqued to proper specification.

June 2, 2023: Mazda began identifying all potentially affected vehicles.

June 13, 2023: Mazda held a Quality Audit Committee meeting to review all available information to date and decided to conduct a proactive field action on certain MY 2024 CX-90 vehicles.
