JAKARTA - The recall must be made by Mazda in Australia. The Japanese manufacturer decided to recall 766 units of the CX-60 Plug-In Hybrid (PHEV) model.

Reporting from Drive, Thursday, November 16, the manufacturer said the model had to be withdrawn from circulation due to an error in software programming which resulted in the car losing power when running.

However, the model affected was only the PHEV variant. Other types such as turbo-gasoline and turbo-diesel were not affected by the problem. These two variants have arrived at the Kangaroo State market in mid-2023.

"Due to programming problems, the failure-safe driving mode that helps reduce the impact of failure on vehicles can be activated accidentally resulting in the loss of propulsion," the local Infrastructure Department wrote.

Loss of driving power when driving at high speed can increase the risk of accidents. This has the potential to result in injury or death for vehicle passengers and other road users.

Mazda Australia has stated that it will contact all affected customers to advise them to show their vehicle to their preferred Mazda dealers to complete the software update for free.
