The 2004 Mazda B-Series Truck has 3 recalls, all involving the frontal airbags: both the driver and passenger inflators can rupture during deployment, sending metal fragments into the cabin and potentially causing serious injury.
The passenger airbag side has an additional concern tied to prior repair attempts. Some trucks that previously had their passenger airbag inflator replaced under an earlier recall may have had that replacement installed incorrectly, meaning the airbag could fail to inflate properly in a crash.
