STEERING

The defect
Mazda North America Operations (Mazda) is recalling certain 2024 CX-90 vehicles. An assembly issue with the worm gear in the steering system may result in a sudden loss of power steering assist.
What it can cause
Loss of power steering assist while driving increases the risk of a crash.
What the dealer does
Dealers will replace the spring engaging the worm gear and reapply grease to the gear teeth, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed March 6, 2024. Owners may contact Mazda customer service at 1-800-222-5500 Option 6. Mazda's number for this recall is 6524A.
NHTSA's note
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.

The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.

Which vehicles

A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .

How this campaign compares

At 43,454 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 88% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers one model year, 2024, and the defect was reported to NHTSA in 2024, at or before the oldest model year it covers — as current as a recall gets.

Mazda vehicles have been recalled over the steering 5 times before this, most recently in June 2023 as 23V429000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.

This site holds the complaint record for all 1 model year the campaign names. Their owners have filed 332 complaints with NHTSA, 33 of them before this campaign was filed. 168 of those name the steering, the system this recall is about — a count of complaints, not of this defect.

The vehicles on this campaign carry 10 other recalls published here, the newest being: 25V568000 (electrical system), 24V817000 (electrical system), 24V816000 (electrical system), 24V815000 (power train).

Check your own car

A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
