Sources and research

These source questions are due-diligence prompts, not a safety rating, mechanical assessment or confirmation that an individual vehicle is affected.

Market-specific CX-7 sources

Mazda Japan campaigns 3938 and 4291 concern passenger- and driver-side airbag inflators in certain Japanese-market CX-7s. For campaign 3938, Mazda lists CBA-ER3P chassis ER3P-100034–ER3P-107718, produced 19 October 2006–24 July 2009. For campaign 4291, Mazda lists ER3P-100033–ER3P-107026, produced through 2 June 2008, and lists 9 CX-7s. A year/model match does not establish that a vehicle is affected; ask Mazda or an authorised dealer to check the complete chassis and repair status. Campaign 3938 ↗ · Campaign 4291 ↗.

Mazda Service Bulletin 01-012/12 (3 April 2012), archived by the US National Highway Traffic Safety Administration: read the document ↗. It specifies US vehicle/VIN applicability and is not shown as a Japan-market issue just because the engine or model is similar.
