CONDITION OF CONCERN

On some 2004 MAZDA6 vehicles equipped with 2.3 liter engines, the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) in some vehicles may not illuminate as required in the event of a detected 02 sensor fault. This concern is caused by a Powertrain Control Module (PCM) calibration. If this failure occurs, the vehicle does not meet the OBD-II requirements.
