Stop-Sale Issued for Mazda CX-5 SUV

Mazda has issued a stop-sale action for its CX-5, due to concerns for fire risks. The directive for dealerships to hold off selling this fuel-efficient SUV precedes an expected recall on 2014-2016 CX-5s.

The company advises that, in a rear collision, the fuel filler pipe could rupture, causing a potential leak. Mazda states that approximately 264,463 vehicles are affected in the U.S. No accidents or injuries have been associated with this problem.
