What this recall means for you
On certain vehicles equipped with manual dimming interior mirrors, the adhesive bonding the rearview mirror to its housing may not be properly applied. As a result, the mirror can come loose and detach from the housing. Vehicles with auto-dimming mirrors are not affected.
Without the rearview mirror in place, the driver's view behind the vehicle is reduced, which increases the risk of a crash. Owners should take this recall seriously and check whether their vehicle is included.
Mazda will notify affected owners, and authorized dealers will replace the interior rearview mirror assembly free of charge. You can contact Mazda customer service at 1-800-222-5500, option 4, referencing recall number 3919G. You should also check your VIN for any open recalls on your vehicle.
