Mazda has announced that they will be recalling certain models of the 2009 B series trucks equipped with 2 wheel drive. They stated that the front spindle stem may crack due to an improper manufacturing process of the spindle.
If a fracture of the spindle stem occurs, the wheel may seperate from the axle, which may result in a loss of steering, increasing the risk of a crash without warning. Dealers will inspect the front spindle and replace it if necessary free of charge. The recall is expected to begin on or before Febuary 9th, 2009. Owners may contact Mazda at 1-800-222-5500.
