Mazda Motor Corp.'s joint venture with FAW Group Corp has begun recalling 206,570 Mazda6 models because of a potential issue with the midsize sedan's brake-assist system in cold weather.

The company will replace the affected component, the spokesman said.
The issue has caused 11 known "small" accidents, he said, adding that no injuries or deaths were reported.
