Mazda CX-60 and CX-90 recalled for steering fault in Australia

A recall has been issued for 5257 examples of the 2024 Mazda CX-60 midsize SUV and 2024 Mazda CX-90 large SUV due to a steering defect.

According to the federal government’s Vehicle Recalls database, a manufacturing defect may cause the gear set within the power steering not to operate correctly, which could result in “unexpected increased steering effort“.

Owners of affected vehicles will be contacted by Mazda Australia in writing to advise when a free-of-charge fix is possible.

Mazda’s recall notice distributed to owners notes that the “power steering gear pre-load spring” will be replaced with a revised part, and the gearset will then be regreased.

The recall also says that this will occur “when parts are available”, though owner’s groups indicate Mazda dealers are in the process of addressing the issue.
