Mazda service campaign SSPD7

What it saysSpecial Service Program (SSPD7) - 2024 CX-30 and 2024 Mazda3 - Body Control Module (BCM) and Vehicle Control Module (VCM) software concern Mazda Motor Corporation has decided to conduct a Special Service Program… NHTSA’s full summary ↓

Mazda filed this with NHTSA as a service campaign dated Aug 6, 2024, received Aug 5, 2024, about the electrical system — 6 documents under this number: SSPD7 FCa, SSPD7 FC, SSPD7 Warranty, SSPD7 Repair and 2 more. It names 2 model years (2024). A service campaign is not a safety recall — there is no NHTSA campaign number and no federal requirement — but it is usually work the manufacturer pays for on the vehicles it names; the dealer checks the VIN against the manufacturer’s list.

What it applies to, as the document itself states it — the build window in the manufacturer’s own words, read by machine from the PDF NHTSA serves. The build date is on the certification label in the driver’s door jamb; the dealer settles a borderline vehicle by its VIN.

If you are a recipient of this notice, your vehicle is included in this SSP. Concern 1: Opening scene of instrument cluster is not displayed as designed Some vehicles may experience that the opening scene* of the instrument cluster is not displayed as designed after the ignition is turned on due to improper control software of the Body Control Module (BCM). * Opening sequence of the instrument cluster refers to the display that occurs immediately after the ignition is turned on, where the vehicle model's logo is shown on the instrument cluster's LCD screen before transitioning to the speedometer display, as well as the sequence where the needles of the analog meters swing to its maximum position then back to initial position.

What the document itself lists

Part the bulletin names

Part numberDescriptionQty
9999-95-065Aorder=50 labels Obtain in Mazda e-Store—

Read by machine from the document NHTSA serves (3 pages), read Sep 30, 2026. A part number is shown only where it matches Mazda’s own catalogue shape, an operation only with its code and time, and a description only where the reader got it whole; anything it could not settle is left out, and the PDF is the record. Times are the manufacturer’s warranty allowances, not a quote.

The summary is NHTSA’s abstract of the document, as filed under 49 CFR 579.5. One communication is usually filed as several documents — the bulletin, a dealer notice, an owner letter — and the number on any of them finds this page. A PDF link is shown only once NHTSA’s own server has been seen to serve that document; the rest are checked over the following nights. Quote the number at a service desk; it is what the dealer’s system is keyed on.

What owners reported

Source: NHTSA complaint database

Owners of the 2 model years this bulletin names have filed 46 complaints with NHTSA since 2015. 31 of them name Forward Collision Avoidance, Electrical System — the same broad component group this bulletin is filed under. NHTSA groups complaints coarsely, so that means the same area of the vehicle, not necessarily the same fault.

Cruise control and lane keeping system engaged. Vehicle will occasionally aggressively apply brakes, when nothing visible is in front of the vehicle. This has nearly cause our car to be rear ended on a number of occasions. I suspect the system mistakenly interprets a building or vehicle shadow as a physical object.

2024 Mazda CX-30 · Forward Collision Avoidance · filed with NHTSA Feb 7, 2026 · ODI 11716422

I was denied work on a network issue recall 3 separate times at the dealership I bought the car. The first time I was told it was because of a smell. If I clean the car, they will fix it. I noticed after they were in the car my backup camera didn’t work which I also thought might be a recall but found out it wasnt.

The vehicle intermittently fails to start when pressing the push-button start system. The start/stop button becomes unresponsive despite normal conditions (key present, brake engaged, no warning indicators preventing ignition).

2024 Mazda CX-30 · Electrical System · filed with NHTSA Apr 14, 2026 · ODI 11731038

A complaint is one owner’s account, not a defect finding, and a bulletin is not a recall. Nothing here says this bulletin was issued because of these complaints, or that the repair it describes fixed them. Complaint files on this site begin in 2015.

Common questions

Source: NHTSA, 49 CFR 579.5

Is Mazda SSPD7 a recall?

No. A service campaign is a manufacturer communication filed with NHTSA under 49 CFR 579.5; a safety recall carries an NHTSA campaign number (two digits, a letter, six digits) and a federal duty to repair for free. Check the vehicle’s recalls by VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls, or on its page here.

Is the SSPD7 repair free?

A service campaign is usually paid by the manufacturer on the vehicles it names, within the terms and time limit the document sets; the dealer checks the VIN against the manufacturer’s list.

Which vehicles does SSPD7 cover?

The manufacturer filed it against 2 model years: 2024 Mazda CX-30, 2024 Mazda Mazda3. Whether one particular vehicle is affected is a matter of its VIN and its build, not its model year alone. The document itself sets the build window: (MMVO produced) 3MVDM**** RM 600011 -: built 22 Aug 2023 – 1 Dec 2023; (MMVO produced) 3MZBP**** RM 400011 -: built 5 Sep 2023 – 30 Nov 2023; (MC produced) JM1BP**** R1 650003 -: built 25 May 2023 – 17 Nov 2023 — the build date is on the certification label in the driver’s door jamb.
