    Mazda is recalling plug-in hybrid versions of its new CX-60 crossover as they could lose power unexpectedly.

    “Due to a programming issue, the fail-safe driving mode which helps reduce the effects of failure in the vehicle may activate unintentionally resulting in a loss of motive power,” the company says in its recall notice.

    “A loss of motive power while driving at high speed could increase the risk of a crash. This could potentially result in injury or death to vehicle occupants and other road users.”

    • A total of 766 vehicles are affected from 2023, all plug-in hybrids

    Mazda is contacting owners of all affected vehicles.

    If you own one of them, you’ll need to take it to a Mazda dealership to have a free software update carried out.

    If you have any further questions, you can contact Mazda Customer Support on 1800 034 411.
