Reporting Safety Defects

             Reporting  Safety  Defects  (U.S.A.)

    If you believe that your vehicle has a defect which could cause a crash or could cause 
injury or death, you should immediately inform the National Highway Traffi c Safety 
Administration  (NHTSA) in addition to notifying Mazda Motor Corporation (Your Mazda 
Importer/Distributor).

  If NHTSA receives similar complaints, it may open an investigation, and if it fi nds that 
a safety defect exists in a group of vehicles, it may order a recall and remedy campaign. 
However, NHTSA cannot become involved in individual problems between you, your 
dealer, or Mazda Motor Corporation (Your Mazda Importer/Distributor).

  To contact NHTSA, you may call the Vehicle Safety Hotline toll-free at 1-888-327-
