Affected:
2,323
Defect:
Thule, inc. is recalling 2,323 owner-installed roof-mounted fit kits, models 3068 and 3069, manufactured between january 1, 2008 and february 28, 2009 that are used with thule podium foot packs, models 460 and 460r. these fit kits were sold as aftermarket equipment for use on the vehicles listed above. the bolt(s) used to secure the foot to the vehicle was manufactured to a hardness that may cause the bolt(s) to be brittle and potentially break under stress.
Consequence:
This may result in the bolt(s) snapping off during use or without a load. the unsecured rack and load can then come loose while driving creating a potential road hazard, possibly resulting in a vehicle crash.
Correction:
Thule will mail a retro fit kit along with repair instructions to owners free of charge. the safety recall is expected to begin on or before april 13, 2009. owners may contact thule toll-free at 1-800-238-2388.
Notes:
This recall only pertains to thule aftermarket roof mounted load carriers and has no relation to any original equipment installed on the listed passenger vehicles.owners may also contact the national highway traffic safety administration's vehicle safety hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (tty 1-800-424-9153), or go to <a href=http://www.safercar.gov>http://www.safercar.gov</a> .

Defect:
Mazda north american operations (mazda) is recalling certain model year 2007-2012 mazda cx-7 vehicles manufactured february 14, 2006, to may 9, 2012. in the affected vehicles, water may enter the front suspension ball joint fittings. if the water is contaminated with salt, such as from driving on snowy roads that have been treated, the ball joint may corrode and separate from the lower control arm, resulting in a loss of steering control.
Consequence:
A loss of steering control can increase the risk of a crash.
Correction:
Mazda will notify owners, and dealers will replace both front lower control arms, free of charge. as a priority, mazda will first address all affected 2007-2008 vehicles as well as 2009-2011 vehicles currently registered in connecticut, delaware, illinois, indiana, iowa, kentucky, maine, maryland, massachusetts, michigan, minnesota, missouri, new hampshire, new jersey, new york, ohio, pennsylvania, rhode island, vermont, virginia. west virginia, wisconsin, and the district of columbia. the remaining vehicles will be addressed as parts are available. the recall began september 20, 2017. owners may contact mazda customer service at 1-800-222-5500. mazda's number for this recall is 9716h.
