What This Recall Means
Component
FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
What Happened
The evaporative canister in your Mazda6 is a part that helps your fuel tank breathe. Spiders can sometimes build a web inside a hose that connects to this canister, which can block airflow and cause a vacuum
Risk if Unfixed
If the fuel tank gets a vacuum, it can crack and leak fuel, which increases the risk of a fire. This could happen while you're driving, which is a serious situation.
How to Get This Fixed
Free Fix
Your Mazda dealer will update the computer system that controls your engine and clean the hose that connects to the canister. If a spider web is found, they'll replace the fuel tank and a valve to prevent future problems – all for free.
