Official summary
Special Service Program (SSP) A6-MDRT TOOL - 2016 CX-5 Passenger Frontal Air Bag Concern. On October 2, 2017, Mazda Technical Services sent out an email extending the Mazda Diagnostic Reprogramming Tool (MDRT) service loaner program for Special Service Program (SSPA6) for an additional 3 months to improve the low completion rate for campaign SSPA6. We are at roughly 84% completion for this campaign. In order to maximize the completion rate as close as we can to 100%, we are extending the MDRT tool loaner program until June 30, 2018 and will evaluate the completion percentage again.
Vehicles covered
What a TSB means. Technical service bulletins are repair guidance manufacturers send to dealers — they are not recalls, and repairs are not automatically free (warranty extensions are an exception worth checking). The full document is available via NHTSA’s vehicle lookup.
