Overview
| MLIT filing number | 1104510 |
|---|---|
| Type | Statutory Recall (government-mandated recall) |
| Date filed | August 3, 1995 |
| Manufacturer(s) | Mazda |
| Component | Fan Belt |
| Production period | May 1995 — July 22, 1995 |
| Vehicles affected | 7,056 units |
Defect
Oil used during molding of the camshaft and related pulleys adhered to the diesel engine timing belt, causing the belt to swell and belt tension to become excessive on some units. Continued use in this condition places excessive bending stress on the camshaft. In the worst case, the camshaft may fracture, rendering the vehicle inoperable.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, replace the timing belt with a new unit.
