Recall campaigns 4 of 4

23V4870002023-07-14

BACK OVER PREVENTION: SENSING SYSTEM: CAMERA

A rearview camera that does not display properly can reduce the driver's rear view, increasing the risk of a crash or injury.

17V3930002017-06-22

PARKING BRAKE

If the parking brake actuator shaft binds, the parking brake may not engage or disengage fully. If the parking brake does not engage properly, the vehicle may move unexpectedly if it is parked on a slope, increasing the risk of a crash.

16V6840002016-09-22

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:STORAGE:TANK ASSEMBLY

A fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source increases the risk of a fire.

14V1730002014-04-03

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:ALTERNATOR/GENERATOR/REGULATOR

Once the PCM assumes that the charging system has failed, the vehicle will stop charging and could result in poor acceleration, loss of steering assist and windshield wiper operation, and a possible engine stall, increasing the risk of a crash.

This page is about a model, not a car

Two 2014 MAZDA MAZDA3s can have entirely different histories, and a recall campaign usually covers a build-date window rather than a whole model year — which a VIN does not encode, so only the door-jamb label settles it. Scanning the VIN adds the decode, the crash tests, the fuel economy and the complaints matched to that exact engine, trim and assembly plant.
