Mazda Motor Corporation recently announced a recall for the DE Demio (Mazda 2) and CX-3 produced in Japan, due to an issue relating to the vehicles’ steering. No Mazda 2s in Malaysia are affected by the recall. On the other hand, a few units of the CX-3 are affected by this recall.
On affected vehicles, the lower mounting nuts and bolts that attach the front strut assembly to the steering knuckle may loosen, allowing it to separate. If the steering knuckle separates from the strut assembly, it can cause a loss of steering control, increasing the risk of a crash.
Mazda states that 331 units of the front-wheel drive CX-3 built at its Japanese plant are affected. However, only three units will be required to partake in the recall programme in Malaysia, according to Bermaz. The fix will require dealers to inspect the lower mounting nuts and bolts that secure the front strut assembly to the steering knuckle. If the bolts are loose, they will be replaced and tightened. Parts are readily available should a replacement be needed.
Mazda Malaysia will contact customers of affected units to bring their vehicles for the necessary corrections at no cost. For those who wish to found out if their CX-3 is affected, you can call the Zoom-Zoom line at 1800-22-8080.
Looking to sell your car? Sell it with Carro.
A great car to see and turn during the corners but it’s transmission cant quite match with the HRV.
Cant match CVT? Ha-ha
Feeling fast and actual fast are different things. That’s why you see so many Saga crawling on the road with its noisy exhaust pipe.
Then why you buy saga for your kid?
whats so great with a loud and noisy cvt to compare with a 6 speed auto transmission?
I think he meant the HR-V’s cvt is a bit quicker off the line.
Normally loud and noise not applied to CVT.. Lol
HRV is very sluggish and slow to accelerate.
Surprise the boring Samy hasnt come here to tell fake story yet.
Geng RBA din pay him to work OT today.
What problem would you get from an old engine with a 4-speeder? He’ll come and said it’s reliable. LOL
Just like he keep using Nokia 3310 since more reliable and confirm no lag and touch screen problem at all. :)
Kidding ya, that guy talkok all the time, and I think more than 3 years he is active post his same bxllshxt comment on this blog..
Man, don’t wish for something like that. You never know when the troll is lurking around.
They docked his pay for 1 month cuz of his friendly fire. So he dun have motivation to do free OT bashings. Just be syukur in the meanwhile.

boring samy and his 6 or 7 dupes!
john, albert peria, boring samy, rewq, red, shame are all ONE person. Please keep this blog clean. We are fed up with your instigations.
Well at least theyre doing a speedy recall. Not all brands will recall their faulty crap, i know this from first hand experience. Are you hearing me FORD/CHEVROLET???
Japanese car recall? No problem, they’re only ensuring customers’ safety. Proton recall? BASH BASH BASH.
People are angry and fed up with proton. We have been forced to buy that junk for decades. Understand that before you talk. Low quality local cars have caused many deaths that could have been avoided.
Iriz got 5 star ANCAP safety rating lor. And saga will follow suit. Go and bash p2 and toyota better
Proton got 5 star (L)ANCAP also no use. Consumers have lost confidence decades ago.
Why do you think Jap B Segment out selling Proton C Segment? Consumers rather pay more for smaller Jap cars. Think about it.
Right. And people are also forced to buy ESC-less Vios and Altis? I’m the one who’s not thinking?
Still waiting my waja power windows recall…
Still waiting for my vios power window fire recall. But my vios alredi cremated loh.
