What This Recall Means

Component

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION:CONTROL MODULE (TCM/PCM/TECM)

What Happened
The Transmission Control Module in your 2016-2019 MX-5 Miata's automatic transmission is the brain that helps your car shift gears smoothly. Unfortunately, it was programmed incorrectly, which could make the transmission behave erratically.
Risk if Unfixed
If the transmission control module fails, your car might suddenly downshift while driving, making it hard to control. This could cause a loss of traction and increase the risk of a crash.

How to Get This Fixed

Free Fix
Your Mazda dealer will update the transmission control module's software to fix the issue – and it's completely free. You should schedule the repair as soon as you get the recall notice.
