Mazda Announces Voluntary Recall
6 April 1998
Mazda Announces Voluntary RecallIRVINE, Calif., April 3 -- Mazda has announced today that it is voluntarily recalling approximately 1,100 1999-model Miata sports cars for the inspection and, if necessary, replacement of the fuel injection wiring harness. Mazda has found that on certain 1999 Maws the fuel injection wiring harness may come into contact with the engine manifold. This condition could cause the wiring harness to develop a short circuit, which could potentially cause the engine to stall. Mazda is urging its dealers to inspect the vehicles at the owner homes or places of business whenever practical and possible. Authorized Mazda dealers will handle the inspection and, if necessary, repair of the fuel injection wiring harness at no cost. While this inspection should take less than 30 minutes, some owners may have to leave their vehicles at the dealership longer to accommodate dealer service schedules. SOURCE Mazda Motor of America
