2023 Mazda KH CX-60 PHEV: loss of drive/motive power

In November 2023, recall campaign R202302 was issued for 2023 Mazda KH CX-60 PHEV vehicles. Due to a programming issue, the fail-safe driving mode which helped reduce the effects of failure in the vehicle may activate unintentionally, resulting in a loss of motive power. If this occurred while driving, it could increase the risk of a collision and injury to both vehicle occupants and other road users. To fix, the vehicle’s software was to be updated by a Mazda dealer. For the VINs of the recalled vehicles, please see REC-005820.

As a result, the driver could experience unexpected increased steering effort. Unexpected increased steering effort, if it occurred whilst driving, could increase the risk of a collision and injury to both vehicle occupants and other road users.

2023-24 Mazda KH CX-60 Diesel: no drive when accelerator pedal depressed

In August 2024, recall campaign 202405 was issued for 2023-24 Mazda KH CX-60 vehicles with diesel engines. Due to a software issue in the transmission control module, if the brake pedal was firmly depressed to stop the vehicle, the clutch for the engine and electric motor may remain disengaged during deceleration. If this occurred, power from the engine or electric motor may not be transmitted when the accelerator pedal was depressed. This condition could increase the risk of injury to vehicle occupants and other road users. To fix, a Mazda dealer was to upgrade the calibration for the transmission control module.
