What's wrong?
The front suspension on the 2025 Mazda CX-50 and CX-50 Hybrid keeps each front wheel located and pointed correctly while the vehicle moves, turns, and brakes. Key joints connect the lower control arm, steering knuckle, tie-rod end nut, and related retaining hardware. Those parts depend on tightened fasteners to hold the wheel assembly in position.
In NHTSA campaign 25V737, Mazda found that some front suspension fasteners were removed and reinstalled during an in-plant repair without recorded tightening torque. That means the hardware was not confirmed as tightened to specification. A loose bolt or nut can back out over time, letting a suspension part separate from its mounting point and allowing a wheel or related component to detach.
The warning sign Mazda lists is abnormal noise from the front of the vehicle while driving. If you hear new clunking, knocking, or similar front-end noise, treat it as a warning sign and have the vehicle checked before normal use continues.
Who's affected?
The CX-50 and CX-50 Hybrid list separate suspension fastener parts, so the exact VIN matters after the model match.

The year and model narrow the scope, but the VIN decides. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific SUV is included.
What's the safety risk?
Wheel or suspension component detachment can cause loss of vehicle control and loss of drive power, increasing the risk of a crash. If you hear abnormal noise from the front of the vehicle while driving, slow down, avoid hard maneuvers, and schedule the recall repair soon. Repair is free at any franchised Mazda dealer.
