Reporting Safety Defects (U.S.A.)

Reporting Safety Defects

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 Tra

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

1-888-327-4236 (TTY

:

1-800-424-9153); go to http://www.safercar.gov; or write

to: Administrator, NHTSA, 1200 New Jersey Avenue, SE., Washington, DC, 20590.

You can also obtain other information about motor vehicle safety from http://
