Turn pedal effort into braking pressure with the Beck/Arnley brake master cylinder, part number 072-9968. It is a direct replacement for the 2013-2016 Mazda CX-5, designed to match the original equipment form, fit and function. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-specific details.
The master cylinder is the heart of the hydraulic brake system. When you press the pedal, it converts that force into fluid pressure and sends it through the brake lines to each wheel. Beck/Arnley's product specialists source OE-quality parts through a trusted global network, and the brand ensures every part meets its own requirements and specifications.
Signs a master cylinder may need replacing include a soft or slowly sinking brake pedal, fluid seepage around the cylinder or reservoir, or a lit brake warning light. These signs can have other causes, so diagnose the brake system before replacing parts. If the original 2013-2016 Mazda CX-5 brake master cylinder is at fault, this unit replaces it. Follow the vehicle service information for installation, including bleeding the brake system.
