Mazda is recalling nearly 261,000 Mazda 3 cars from the 2004 through 2007 model years due to a plastic emblem on the steering wheel that may shatter if the airbags are inflated.
US safety regulators warned that the emblem can shatter and send plastic fragments into the vehicles, potentially causing injuries.
The company that it has 10 reports of injuries outside the US while two have been filed in the US alleging injuries.
Owners will be notified beginning Aug. 28 when dealers will replace the airbag module cover.
