Recall 25V167000 · manufacturer campaign 7225C

Trailer Hitches — Mazda · reported 14 Mar 2025 · 63 vehicles potentially affected

What's wrong

Mazda North American Operations (Mazda) is recalling certain 2024-2025 CX-50 vehicles equipped with Mazda Genuine Accessory trailer hitches. The trailer hitch assembly bolts may loosen and cause the assembly to separate from the vehicle body during towing or normal driving conditions.

The risk

A detached trailer hitch assembly can create a road hazard, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix

Dealers will tighten the trailer hitch bolts, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed April 4, 2025. Mazda's number for this recall is 7225C.

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 888-327-4236 (TTY 888-275-9171) or go to nhtsa.gov.
