Make and Model: Mazda3 MPS

Number of Vehicles Effected: 1160

Whats Wrong? Under certain conditions (rapid acceleration/racing starts) the No. 4 engine mount securing bolt may loosen. If the vehicle is driven when this concern is present, the No. 4 engine mount securing bolt may come out or break, allowing the engine and transmission assembly to drop down.

What Should You Do? Contact your nearest Mazda Dealer as soon as possible. Further information is available on Freecall 1800 034 411 or mazda.com.au.

This is currently the second recall for the Mazda3 MPS.

    2nd recall?? What’s the first? I have a June 06 built Mazda 3 MPS and have no issues whatsoever, fantastic car, love it.

    Z, if you click the words “second recall” it will take you to the page. :P

    It’s an Engine Mounting Point Recall. Just contact Mazda, I think they most likely just replace a few parts, nothing major, nothing to be worried about.

    First recal was engine mount rubber for Mount Number 4, now it’s Engine mount bolt for Number for, I think there is a good chance of engine bracing being introduced into this car before long…..
