Mazda North American Operations (Mazda) is recalling certain 2011 Mazda2 and 2010-2011 Mazda3 and Mazdaspeed3 vehicles equipped with a manual seat lifter. In the affected vehicles, the seat height adjustment lifter links may break or detach from the seat frame and the seat angle may incline causing the driver to not be able to maintain an appropriate driving position.
If the driver cannot maintain an appropriate driving position, there is an increased risk of a crash.
Mazda will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the seat lifter links and install a reinforcement bracket to the lifter links, or replace the entire seat adjuster unit, free of charge. The recall began April 7, 2017. Owners may contact Mazda customer service at 1-800-222-5500. Mazda's number for this recall is 0917B.

MAZDA IS RECALLING 25,400 MY 2010 MAZDA3 VEHICLES. A CLEARANCE BETWEEN THE ENGINE HARNESS AND THE HOUSING OF STARTER MOTOR MAY BE INSUFFICIENT. DUE TO THIS, THE COVERING OF THE HARNESS MAY BE DAMAGED THROUGH VIBRATION DURING OPERATION POSSIBLY CAUSING A SHORT-CIRCUIT BETWEEN CERTAIN HARNESS WIRES AND THE STARTER HOUSING. A SHORT-CIRCUIT CAN RESULT IN ENGINE CONTROL MALFUNCTION AND/OR POOR SHIFT QUALITY.
THE MAIN FUSE MAY BLOW OUT CAUSING THE ENGINE TO STALL AND INABILITY OF RESTART, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.
DEALERS WILL HAVE THE ENGINE HARNESS INSPECT AND ADD A PROTECTOR CLIP ON THE AFFECTED SECTION OF THE HARNESS. IF NECESSARY, THE HARNESS WILL BE REPAIRED. THIS SERVICE WILL BE PERFORMED FREE OF CHARGE. THE RECALL IS EXPECTED TO BEGIN ON MAY 6, 2009. OWNERS MAY CONTACT MAZDA AT 1-800-222-5500.

I TOOK MY 2010 MAZDA3 IN FOR RECALL OF SEAT LINK ADJUSTERS AND TO SERVICE MY MELTING DASHBOARD THAT CAUSES AN UNSAFE GLARE ON THE WINDSHIELD WHILE DRIVING IN SUNNY CONDITIONS. THE DEALERSHIP VERIFIED THE RECALL AND SERVICE IN MAY 2017 AND WAS INFORMED THAT PARTS WILL NEED TO BE ORDERED. WAS TOLD THAT I WOULD RECEIVE A CALL BACK IN A WEEK OR TWO. AFTER SEVERAL REPEATED ATTEMPTS AT CALLING AND EMAILING THE DEALERSHIP, I CANNOT REACH THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT TO CHECK ON THE STATUS OF ORDERED PARTS. THE TIME FRAME FOR THE REPAIR FROM THE UNSAFE CONDITIONS OF THE DRIVER'S SEAT THAT MOVES WHILE I SHIFT, AND THE HORRENDOUS GLARE FROM THE MELTING DASHBOARD, IS TO SLOW FOR RESOLUTION. IT HAS BEEN 3 MONTHS SINCE HAVING MY CAR INSPECTED AT ROSENTHAL MAZDA/GAITHERSBURG MAZDA AT 625 NORTH FREDERICK AVENUE IN GAITHERSBURG, MD 20879. I HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY RESPONSE OF COMMUNICATIONS INFORMING ME OF THE STATUS OF GETTING MY CAR REPAIRED OR MY RIGHTS AS A CONSUMER.

FRONT LEFT SEAT SUPPORT UNDER DRIVER'S SEAT BROKE LOOSE, CAUSING ENTIRE SEAT TO TILT BACKWARD DURING ACCELERATION ON A CITY STREET. ONLY A FIRM GRIP ON THE STEERING WHEEL PREVENTED ME FROM LOSING CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. ONLY AFTER SEARCHING ON THE WEB DID I FIND AN EXISTING RECALL FOR SEAT "INSPECTION". NO CONTACT FROM MANUFACTURER ABOUT THIS RECALL.

GOT IN MY CAR, STARTED BACKING OUT OF THE DRIVEWAY, HEARD A LOUD POP UNDER THE DRIVER'S SEAT, AND NOTICED THE FRONT LEFT PART OF THE SEAT WAS PULLING UP FROM THE FRAME BY AN INCH OR TWO. UPON CLOSER INSPECTION I NOTICED THE WELD THAT SECURES THE SEAT TO THE FRAME BROKE. I AM NOT A LARGE GUY (~170 LBS) NOR AM I ROUGH WITH THE SEAT. AFTER A BIT OF SEARCHING, IT SEEMS THIS IS A RATHER WIDESPREAD ISSUE WITH 2010 MAZDA 3S AND IT OBVIOUSLY A SAFETY CONCERN.

DRIVERS SEAT BROKE FROM FRAME RAILS. FIRST THE PLASTIC PUSH PIN SCEWS THAT ATTACHES POWER SEAT TO HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT RAILS SNAPPED, COLLAPSING ONE SIDE OF DRIVERS SEAT. THEN THE FRAME RAIL ON THAT SIDE SNAPPED INTO PIECES. WHEN TRAFFIC LIGHT TURNED GREEN, I STARTED FORWARD AND SEAT COLLAPSED ON MY LEFT SIDE, THEN I HEARD A POP AND SEAT FLIPPED BACK, ALMOST CAUSING ME TO CRASH. WHEN I TOOK CAR TO MAZDA SERVICE, THE TECHS SHOWED ME DOZENS OF MAZDA CARS IN SERVICE BAYS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. I WAS TOLD THIS GOES BACK TO 2002. MAZDA JAPAN STATES: WE ACKNOWLEDGE THE PROBLEM, BUT MAZDA SEATS ARE NOT MADE FOR LARGE AMERICAN BODIES, BUT FOR THE AVERAGE SMALLER, LIGHTER AND DELICATE JAPANESE PERSON. IN FEB,2017, MAZDA ISSUED A RECALL ON SOME CARS FOR THE SEAT FRAME COLLAPSING, BUT MY CAR AND MOST OTHER MAZDA CARS ARE NOT INCLUDED IN THIS RECALL. PLEASE CHECK OUT ANY MAZDA SERVICE DEPT. AND ASK FOR RECORDS OF SNAPPED FRONT SEAT FRAMES AND SEAT FRAME SCREWS POPPING OUT , COLLAPSING THE SEATS. PLEASE REQUIRE MAZDA WELD IN NEW FRAME RAILS AND INSTALL CORRECT NUMBER OF SEAT ATTACHMENT SCREWS, AND OR REPLACE SEATS ASSEMBLIES WITH ONES THAT DON'T BREAK FROM NORMAL USAGE. WITHOUT A RECALL MAZDA CHARGES OVER $1100 TO REPLACE POWER SEAT FRAME, WITH NO GUARANTEE THE REPLACEMENT FRAME WONT BREAK WHEN YOU SEAT IN CAR THE FIRST TIME BECAUSE THAT'S HOW MAZDA BUILDS THE SEAT FRAMES! THAT'S TRAGIC.

MAZDA RECALL #: 0917B NHTSA RECALL #: 17V-082 WHILE CAR WAS OFF/STATIONARY, I SAT IN THE DRIVER'S SEAT AND HEARD A POP AS THE SEAT ROCKED BACKWARD. LOOKED UNDER THE SEAT AND SAW THAT TWO BRACKETS HAD SNAPPED. IT NOW FORCES AN UNSAFE DRIVING POSITION SINCE THE SEAT NO LONGER STAYS IN PLACE. IT LEANS BACKWARDS FREELY AND IS CLEARLY UNSAFE FOR DRIVING BECAUSE THERE IS NO SUPPORT WHATSOEVER FOR THE DRIVER. IT WAS PARKED IN MY DRIVEWAY. I CONTACTED MAZDA FACTORY SERVICE AFTER HAVING A LOCAL SERVICE CENTER INSPECT THE PROBLEM AND THEY DETERMINED THAT IT IS NOT A PART OF THE RECALL. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW HOW THIS HAPPENS AND HOW IT IS POSSIBLE THAT IT IS UNRELATED TO THIS RECALL.
