STATEMENT ON NON-COMPLIANCE RECALL 7425E

DSC Light May Fail to Illuminate on Certain MY2024-2025 MX-5 Miata Vehicles

WASHINGTON, DC. (June 6, 2025) – Mazda North American Operations (MNAO), on behalf of Mazda Motor Corporation, has filed a non-compliance defect notification with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) for a concern which exists on certain MY2024-2025 MX-5 Miata vehicles.

On certain MY2024-2025 MX-5 Miata vehicles, the Traction Control System (TCS)/Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) indicator light may not illuminate when abnormal yaw rate characteristics are detected due to a software diagnostic programming error.

This matter constitutes a non-compliance with FMVSS126, as the DSC unit fails to trigger illumination of the TCS/DSC indicator light when abnormal yaw rate characteristics are detected. As the DSC unit cannot correctly detect an abnormal yaw rate characteristic, the TCS/DSC indicator light does not illuminate even when such an abnormality occurs. In this condition, potential sudden steering maneuvers may result in understeer or oversteer that the system would normally monitor and correct. However, when abnormal yaw rate characteristics are detected, the TCS/DSC function may not behave as expected and may fail to illuminate the TCS/DSC indicator light. As a result, the driver may be unaware of the malfunction, which could increase the risk of a crash or injury.

There have been no reports of any accidents or injuries due to the defect.

Approximately 12,244 MY2024-2025 MX-5 Miata vehicles are affected in the U.S. and U.S. Territories.

Affected owners will be notified by U.S. Mail. Please check mazdarecallinfo.com or nhtsa.gov for the latest updates.
