Customer Information and Reporting Safety Defects

Warranty

Form No. 8S06-EA-03H

Government regulations in Canada require that automobiles meet specific emission 
regulations and safety regulations. Therefore, vehicles built for use in Canada may differ 
from those sold in other countries.

The differences may make it difficult or even impossible for your vehicle to receive 
satisfactory servicing in other countries. We strongly recommend that you NOT take your 
Mazda outside Canada. However, in the event that you are moving to the United States 
permanently, Mazda vehicles built for use in Canada could be eligible for exportation to the 
United States with specific vehicle modifications to comply with the United States Federal 
Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS).

You may have the following problems if you do take your vehicle outside of Canada:

•

Recommended fuel may be unavailable. Any kind of leaded fuel or low-octane fuel will 
affect vehicle performance and damage the emission controls and engine.

•

Proper repair facilities, tools, testing equipment, and replacement parts may not be 
available.

Please refer to your Manufacturer’s Warranty Booklet for more information.

Outside Canada

NOTE

The above is applicable for a permanent import/export situation and not related to 
travelers on vacation.
