REPORTING SAFETY DEFECTS (U.S. ONLY)

If you believe that your vehicle has a defect that could cause a crash, or

could cause injury or death, you should immediately inform the National

Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) in addition to notifying

Mazda Corporation.
If NHTSA receives similar complaints, it may open an investigation, and

if it finds 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 Corporation.
To contact NHTSA, you may either call the Auto Safety Hotline toll-free

at 1–800–424–9393 (202–366–0123 in the Washington D.C. area) or write
