2019 Mazda3
DESCRIPTION
Some vehicles with the two-step deployment control air bag module may exhibit a clicking sound when turning the steering wheel. This is caused by the horn spring (1) of the airbag module interfering with the black color tape (2) of the clock spring harness (3), resulting in a stick-slip noise (click on attached sound file below).
To eliminate this concern, a material change of the harness tape is planned.
Customers having this concern should have their vehicle repaired using the following repair procedure.
REPAIR PROCEDURE
1. Verify the customer concern.
2. Detach the driver side air bag module according to the instructions on MGSS (DRIVER-SIDE AIR BAG MODULE INSTALLATION [TWO-STEP DEPLOYMENT CONTROL SYSTEM – US/CANADA SPEC.])
NOTE: DO NOT route the air bag harness between the air bag connectors. Route the harness outside of the connecters as detailed by the red arrow.
6. Verify repair.
