Mazda has recalled just 63 CX-50 SUVs from model years 2024-2025 because incorrectly installed trailer hitch assemblies can fail.
The company tells the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) that technicians may not have tightened installation bolts to the correct torque. As a result, “The trailer hitch assembly bolts may loosen and cause the assembly to separate from the vehicle body during towing or normal driving conditions.”
Dealers have a simple remedy — they’ll tighten the bolts to the specified torque.
