Mazda has issued a safety notice concerning the power liftgate system on certain 2021 Mazda CX-9 models. This notice highlights a potential issue where the power liftgate may not operate as intended, which could lead to safety concerns for drivers and passengers.

Understanding the Power Liftgate Safety Notice

The power liftgate is designed to provide convenience by allowing the rear door to open and close automatically. However, in affected 2021 Mazda CX-9 vehicles, the liftgate may fail to stop when encountering an obstruction or may not latch securely. This could increase the risk of injury or damage if the liftgate closes unexpectedly or does not remain properly closed while driving.

What Mazda Owners Should Do

  • Check your vehicle identification number (VIN) on Mazda’s official website or contact your local Mazda dealer to see if your 2021 CX-9 is included in the recall or safety notice.
  • If your vehicle is affected, schedule a free inspection and repair appointment with an authorized Mazda service center.
  • Avoid using the power liftgate manually until the safety issue has been addressed and resolved by professionals.
  • Stay informed about any further updates or notices from Mazda regarding this or other safety concerns.

Ensuring your Mazda CX-9 is operating safely is essential for your peace of mind and the safety of your passengers. Addressing recalls and safety notices promptly helps maintain vehicle reliability and prevents potential hazards on the road.
