2025 Mazda CX-50 Hybrid: Electrical System recall

NHTSA campaign 25V418000 · 22 units potentially affected · filed Jun 18, 2025

What's wrong

Mazda North American Operations (Mazda) is recalling certain 2025 CX-50 Hybrid vehicles. The transmission gear shifter can be moved from Neutral to Drive without pressing the brake pedal.

Why it matters

Shifting into gear without the brake pedal depressed can result in unexpected vehicle movement, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix

Dealers will replace the Engine Control Module (ECM) and reprogram the Hybrid Control Unit (HCU) and Power Control Unit (PCU), free of charge. Interim owner notification letters were mailed August 15, 2025. A second notice will be sent once the remedy becomes available, anticipated late summer 2025. Owners may contact Mazda customer service at 1-800-222-5500 Option 6. The manufacturer's number for this recall is 7725F.
