## What is wrong

Mazda North American Operations \(Mazda\) is recalling certain model year 2017 Mazda6 vehicles manufactured August 12, 2016, to September 28, 2016 and equipped with optional accessory fog lights.  Due to an incorrect combination switch being installed, the turn signals may not automatically cancel by the rotation of the steering wheel.  As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard \(FMVSS\) number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."


## What can happen

A vehicle continuously driven with the turn signal flashing may result in confusion to other drivers, increasing the risk of a crash.


## The remedy

Mazda will notify owners, and dealers will replace the combination switch, free of charge.  The recall began December 2016.  Owners may contact Mazda customer service at 1\-800\-222\-5500.  Mazda's number for this recall is 0316J.


## Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1\-888\-327\-4236 \(TTY 1\-800\-424\-9153\), or go to www.safercar.gov.
