1 recall across 2 model years
The Mazda MX-3 has 1 recall covering both 1992 and 1993 model years, where grease inside the ignition switch can become electrically conductive, cause the switch to overheat, and start a fire.
On affected vehicles, the ignition switch contacts were lubricated with a grease that can degrade and conduct electricity rather than insulate it. When current flows through that grease, the switch overheats and can ignite surrounding materials, raising the risk of a fire in the cabin or under the dash.
