The recall affects customers of the Mazda3 compact sedan and hatchback, currently the company’s most popular model, and includes those vehicles that were produced from January 2006 to March 2009.

The issue is in regards to an oil hose being placed too close to a radiator shroud panel, which because of friction when travelling on bumpy roads can cause the hose to leak.

"The company has received two cases of complaints due to the problem, both in China," a company spokesman revealed to the AFP. "No accident because of it has been reported."

Mazda is yet to confirm if the recall on its Mazda3 will lead to other markets, including the U.S. Stay tuned for an update.
