It involves 227,000 vehicles that are at risk of manual parking brake failure. <\/p>\n<p>Mazda responded to National Highway Traffic Safety Administration findings that the parking brake on both Mazda 3 and Mazda 6 models had failed in some instances. The manual brake mechanism did not form a proper seal and was admitting water into the mechanism. This resulted in corrosion that could decrease brake performance and cause problems with driving. The issue was widespread enough to risk <a href=\"https:\/\/www.garmerprather.com\/Products-Liability\/index.html\">defective product<\/a> claims against the company. <\/p>\n<p>The recall effects 2014 and 2016 Mazda 3 and 2014 and 2015 Mazda 6 models. The <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mlive.com\/auto\/index.ssf\/2017\/07\/mazda_recall.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">defective auto part<\/a> brake systems will be repaired free of charge by dealerships. Formal notification of the product recall to dealers is not expected until Aug. 7, 2017.
