2000 Mazda B-Series Truck recalls
Recall 07V-347: Vehicle Speed Control
Problem: On certain trucks equipped with a speed control system, the speed control deactivation switch may, under certain conditions, leak internally and then overheat, smoke, or burn.
Risk: This could result in an underhood fire.
Fix: Dealers will install a fused wiring harness. An interim notice was sent to owners on september 7, 2007, directing them to have the speed deactivation control switch disconnected temporarily. A second notification letter to owners was in february 2008 advising them to return to dealers for installation of the repair part. Owners of affected vehicles who did not receive a phase 2 notice and have not had the recall completed will be notified beginning august 6, 2008. Owners may contact mazda at 1-800-222-5500.
Recall 00V-228: Seat Belts
Problem: Vehicle description: light duty trucks equipped with trw seat belt buckle assemblies. The buckle base of these seat belt assemblies were not properly heat treated and therefore do not pass the load bearing requirement of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 209, "seat belt assemblies."
Risk: In the event of a vehicle crash, the occupant may not be properly restrained.
Fix: Dealers will inspect the buckle assemblies to determine whether the buckle assembly build date codes are within the suspect range. Those within the suspect date code range will be replaced.
