Filing in context
The Other equipment is the most frequently cited component category in this archive, appearing in 44 of its 4,890 filings. This filing is one of 17 Mazda notifications from 2013 in this archive. For scale, 4,831 of the 4,890 filings in this archive report a larger number of affected vehicles.
Defect
The vehicle-mounted emergency beacon light (aftermarket) has 16 perimeter fastening points joining the upper and lower covers. Stress concentration occurs at the embedded nut inserts in the lower cover, and external factors such as driving vibration and solar heat cause cracks to develop at those locations. Continued use damages the fastening points and, in the worst case, the upper cover may detach from the vehicle.
Corrective action
Replace the emergency beacon light on all vehicles with a corrected part.

状況
車両に架装した警光灯（社外品）の上下カバーの外周締結部（計１６ヶ所）において、下側カバーの埋込ナット部に応力集中が発生しており、そこに走行振動や日射熱等の外的要因が加わることで亀裂が発生することがある。そのため、そのままの状態で使用を続けると、締結部が損傷し、最悪の場合、上側カバーが脱落するおそれがある。
改善措置
全車両、警光灯を対策品と交換する。
