Mazda Australia has recalled 912 examples of the BT-50 due to a fault which could lead drivers to lose control of the ute.
“Due to a manufacturing defect, the left leaf spring bracket may have been insufficiently welded and could crack resulting in a loss of vehicle control,” the carmaker said in its recall notice.
