Mazda CX-90 Recall 24V817: Loss of drive power in EV mode can raise crash risk

What this recall means for you

Certain 2024 Mazda CX-90 and 2025 Mazda CX-70 plug-in hybrid vehicles may have improper inverter software. This can cause the malfunction indicator lights to come on, and the vehicle may lose drive power while operating in electric vehicle (EV) mode.

Losing drive power unexpectedly increases the risk of a crash, particularly in traffic or at higher speeds. If your vehicle shows a malfunction indicator light or you experience a sudden loss of power, take extra care, move to a safe location when possible, and have the vehicle inspected promptly.

Authorized Mazda dealers will install improved inverter software free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed December 19, 2024. To check whether your vehicle is affected, look up your VIN for open recalls, or contact Mazda customer service at 1-800-222-5500, Option 6, and reference recall number 7024J.
