Service bulletins for the 2019 Mazda Mazda3

A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it. The summary is NHTSA's. The document is the manufacturer's: read it at NHTSA. A bulletin is not a recall, and listing a model year does not mean every vehicle of it is concerned.

This SSP will apply only to owners currently registered in the state of California. There are 6,715 vehicles in the VIN ranges above that are registered in the state of California. Concern Outline: On certain subject vehicles, if the vehicle sets diagnostic trouble codes (DTC) P2096 / P2097 and/or P0524, in the memory of the powertrain control module (PCM), they cannot be cleared even after the concern that created the DTC has been resolved.
SA-058-202020-08-05. Service bulletin. ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING. A new cylinder head assembly for service parts has been newly established for SKYACTIV-G 2.5 with cylinder deactivation when replacement is needed.

SA-057-202020-08-05. Service bulletin. EQUIPMENT:APPLIANCE:AIR CONDITIONER. Some customers may complain that the HVAC system blows hot air on occasion (blows cold air, then hot air, then cold air again). The customer may notice that it is more pronounced when they first start driving the vehicle and/or when accelerating.
SA-056-202020-08-05. Service bulletin. STRUCTURE:BODY:DOOR. Some customers or technicians (during PDI) may have concerns with the front doors sticking (especially on hot days) and/or poor appearance, fitment, alignment or gaps with the front and rear door sash molding. These concerns may be related to the door sash molding interference between the front and rear doors.
SA-055-20a2020-08-05. Service bulletin. SERVICE BRAKES, AIR:SUPPLY:LOW PRESSURE WARNING:SWITCH; ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING. If a customer comes in with the following concerns: • OIL PRESSURE WARNING light and/or the CHECK ENGINE light ON. • DTC P055F and/or P0524 stored. • No driveability concern or engine mechanical noise. • Outside the VIN range in TSB 01-020/18.
SA-054-20b2020-08-05. Service bulletin. ELECTRICAL SYSTEM; ENGINE. Some customers may experience an engine no start due to low battery voltage on 2019-2020 Mazda3 and 2020 CX-30. Inform the customer that Mazda is actively investigating this issue and apologizes for any inconvenience. Mazda would like to request both dealer and customer support to expedite a repair. Customers having this concern should be instructed to contact Mazda Roadside Assistance and have their vehicle inspected by a local dealer.
SA-029-20f2020-08-05. Service bulletin. ELECTRICAL SYSTEM; ENGINE. Some customers may experience a "IN-VEHICLE NETWORK MALFUNCTION" warning message in the instrument cluster with one or more of the following DTC's stored:
SA-027-20c2020-08-05. Service bulletin. ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:SOFTWARE. Customers having MAZDA CONNECT concerns should have their vehicle repaired using the following repair procedure.
SA-004-20b2020-08-05. Service bulletin. EQUIPMENT:MECHANICAL. In order to ensure key code security, MNAO has restricted key code access for the new auxiliary key. This Service Alert provides information on how to obtain the 10-digit key code needed for cutting a new auxiliary key blank if all auxiliary keys are lost.
MT-001-202020-08-04. Service bulletin. EQUIPMENT; ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. If you encounter any type of electrical concern (e.g, dead battery, engine no start, DTC(s) stored...), interview the customer before proceeding with normal Workshop Manual diagnosis. Aftermarket devices may be the cause of the electrical concern. Ask the customer if any aftermarket devices have been installed. Below are a couple of examples of unusual electrical concerns caused by aftermarket devices.
15-002-20-37192020-08-04. Service bulletin. FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: SENSING SYSTEM: RADAR; SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC; EQUIPMENT ADAPTIVE/MOBILITY. Some vehicles equipped with Smart Brake Support (SBS) may exhibit a front radar system malfunction message in the instrument cluster with DTC C1A67:04 (front radar sensor internal malfunction) stored in memory. This may be caused by water penetrating into the front radar sensor through the breather hole and damaging the radar sensor, resulting in the DTC C1A67:04. To eliminate this concern, the front radar sensor has been modified.
09-023-20-37232020-08-04. Service bulletin. EQUIPMENT ADAPTIVE/MOBILITY; EQUIPMENT; STRUCTURE. Some vehicles may exhibit a deformed fuel-filler lid panel (1) attached to the fuel-filler lid box, resulting in a poor appearance. This concern is caused by the lid box not having enough water drainage capability which leads to the accumulation of water inside it. The water then freezes in cold weather and expands or the inner side of the lid panel absorbs the water and swells from long exposure, deforming the lid panel. To eliminate this concern, the shape of the fuel-filler lid box has been modified to have better drainage capability.
09-006-20-3673a2020-08-04. Service bulletin. EQUIPMENT. When encountering a vehicle with paint damage, refer to the "Mazda Paint Warranty Guide" to determine cause, prevention, remedy, and warranty coverage (if applicable).
07-003-20-37122020-08-04. Service bulletin. EQUIPMENT; ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:SOFTWARE. Some customers may hear a repeating click sound when using the HVAC system. The click sound may be caused by the air mix doors moving back and forth. This concern has been eliminated by a dash-electrical supply unit control software modification.
01-009-20-37102020-08-04. Service bulletin. ELECTRICAL SYSTEM; ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING; EQUIPMENT. Some customers may complain about a very low frequency noise and/or vibration felt at the steering wheel, the floor and/or the seats when driving at 1500-1650 rpm in any gear position. This may be caused by normal vehicle behavior while the cylinder deactivation is active (two cylinders drive). The state of the cylinder deactivation can be monitored in the center display to help verify if this is the issue. WARNING: DO NOT keep your eyes focused solely on the display while test driving. For your safety, keep your eyes on the road ahead. To correct this concern, the radiator mount brackets and the control software of the PCM have been modified to reduce the resonance of the radiator. NOTE: The combination of the modified radiator mount brackets and older PCM calibration may result in worse vibration.
01-004-20-3684b2020-08-04. Service bulletin. ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING; ELECTRICAL SYSTEM; POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. Some customers may experience the master warning light turning on and a lack of power with DTC P2BF6:00 (Exhaust shutter valve position sensor circuit low input (1DC)) stored in memory. This is caused by improper logic written in the PCM for the exhaust shutter valve position sensor.
SA-055-202020-07-03. Service bulletin. ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING. If a customer comes in with the following concerns, perform the inspection procedure. • OIL PRESSURE WARNING light and/or the CHECK ENGINE light ON. • DTC P055F and/or P0524 stored. • No driveability concern or engine mechanical noise. • Outside the VIN range in TSB 01-020/18.
