Defect Summary
Mazda North American Operations (Mazda) is recalling certain model year 2017 Mazda6 vehicles manufactured August 12, 2016, to September 28, 2016 and equipped with optional accessory fog lights.

Consequence Summary
A vehicle continuously driven with the turn signal flashing may result in confusion to other drivers, increasing the risk of a crash.
