The CX-30, along with the Mazda3 car, were recalled over the air bag sensor flaw, which can interfere with deployment in a crash.

Mazda is recalling more than 170,000 vehicles to address failed air bags following a particular low-battery scenario.
The entire population of 2024 and 2025 Mazda3 compact car and CX-30 crossover SUV sold in the U.S. and Canada have the flaw, Mazda estimates.
The vehicles’ air bag sensor units may store an error code after the battery completely depletes when the ignition switch is left in the on position for two hours or longer without the engine running, according to documents filed with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. After the battery is recharged and the vehicle started, the air bags won’t deploy in a crash.
An air bag warning light illuminates in the instrument panel in such a scenario. The Japanese automaker said it’s unaware of any crashes or injuries related to the malfunction.
Dealers will reprogram the air bag sensor unit with improved software or replace it as needed. Mazda is scheduled to mail recall notices to owners on July 28.
