NHTSA: US Recall News: MAZDA (19V514000) SUBARU (19V519000)
Mazda3 Recalled for Headrest Issue
Mazda is recalling 9,430 of its 2019 Mazda3 cars because the headrests may not lock into place,
which raises the risk of injury in a crash, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
The Details
Vehicles involved: 9,430 of the 2019 Mazda3 cars built from Jan. 15, 2019 through May 22, 2019.
The problem: Improper installed seat cover material may interfere with the head restraint lock release button for the front seats, causing the button to be stuck in the released position. In this condition, the head restraint can be moved freely, without the ability to lock.
The fix: Dealers will install spacers at the bottom of the lock release buttons on both front seat head restraints, at no charge to owners. The recall is expected to begin Sept. 3, 2019.
