3 recalls across 4 model years
The Mazda 929 has 3 recalls spanning the 1988–1995 production run, with the most serious affecting 1993–1995 models where grease inside the ignition switch can become conductive, cause the switch to overheat, and start a fire.
The 1988 model year has two recalls. One involves the front seatbelt buckle release buttons, made of a plastic that can crack and shed fragments into the buckle mechanism, leading to a belt that won't latch, latches without actually engaging, or won't release in a crash or sudden stop. The other is a compliance issue where certain 1988 vehicles may not meet evaporative emissions standards, meaning fuel vapors can escape the fuel system into the atmosphere rather than being captured.
