AUTO LINE and Mazda have been
certified by the Arbitration
Certification Program of the
California Department of
Consumer Affairs.
2. If you have a problem arising under a Mazda written warranty, we
encourage you to bring it to our
attention. If we are unable to
resolve it, you may file a claim with
BBB AUTO LINE. Claims must be
filed with BBB AUTO LINE within six
(6) months after the expiration of
the warranty.
3. To file a claim with BBB AUTO LINE, call 1-800-955-5100. There is no
charge for the call.
4. In order to file a claim with BBB AUTO LINE, you will have to
provide your name and address,
the brand name and vehicle
identification number (VIN) of your
vehicle, and a statement of the
nature of your problem or
complaint. You will also be asked to
provide: the approximate date of
your acquisition of the vehicle, the
vehicle's current mileage, the
approximate date and mileage at
the time any problem(s) were first
brought to the attention of Mazda
or one of our dealers, and a
statement of the relief you are
seeking.
5. BBB AUTO LINE staff may try to help resolve your dispute through
mediation. If mediation is not
successful, or if you do not wish to
participate in mediation, claims
within the program's jurisdiction
may be presented to an arbitrator
at an informal hearing. The
arbitrator's decision should
ordinarily be issued within 40 days
from the time your complaint is
filed; there may be a delay of 7days if you did not first contact
Mazda about your problem, or a
delay of up to 30 days if the
arbitrator requests an inspection/
report by an impartial technical
expert or further investigation and
report by BBB AUTO LINE.
6. You are required to use BBB AUTO LINE before asserting in court any
rights or remedies conferred by
California Civi l Code Section
1793.22. You are also required to
use BBB AUTO LINE before
exercising rights or seeking
remedies created by Title I of the
Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, 15
U.S.C. sec. 2301 et seq. If you
choose to seek redress by pursuing
rights and remedies not created by
California Civi l Code Section
1793.22 or Title I of the
Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act,
resort to BBB AUTO LINE is not
required by those statutes.
7. California Civi l Code Section
1793.2 (d) requires that, if Mazda
or its representative is unable to
repair a new motor vehicle to
conform to the vehicle's applicable
express warranty after a reasonable
number of attempts, Mazda may be
required to replace or repurchase
the vehicle. California Civil Code
Section 1793.22 (b) creates a
presumption that Mazda has had a
reasonable number of attempts to
conform the vehicle to its
applicable express warranties if,
within 18 months from delivery to
the buyer or 18,000 miles on the
vehicle's odometer, whichever
occurs first, one or more of the
following occurs:

▼Satisfaction Review Process
Your complete and permanent
satisfaction is of primary concern to
Mazda. All Authorized Mazda Dealers
have both the knowledge and tools to
keep your Mazda in top condition. In
our experience, any questions,
problems, or complaints regarding the
operation of your Mazda or any other
general service transactions are most
effectively
resolved by your dealer. If
the cause of your dissatisfaction
cannot adequately be addressed by
normal dealership procedures, we
recommend that you take the
following steps:
▼ STEP 1: Contact the Mazda Dealer
Discuss the matter with a member of
dealership management. If the Service
Manager has already reviewed your
concerns, contact the owner of the
dealership or its General Manager.
▼STEP 2: Contact the Mazda
Regional Office
If you feel that you still require
assistance, ask the dealer Service
Manager to arrange for you to meet
the local Mazda Service
Representative. If more expedient,
contact Mazda Canada Inc. Regional
Office nearest you for such
arrangements. Regional Office address
and phone numbers are shown (page
8-8).
▼
STEP 3: Contact the Mazda
Customer Relations Department
If still not substantially satisfied,
contact the Customer Relations
Department, Mazda Canada Inc., 55
Vogell Road, Richmond Hill, Ontario,
L4B 3K5 Canada TEL: 1 (800)
263-4680.
Provide the Department with the
following information:
1. Your name, address and telephone
number
2. Year and model of vehicle
3. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). Refer to the Vehicle
Identification Number on page
9-2 for the location of the VIN.
4. Purchase date

7. The nature of your problem and/or cause of dissatisfaction
The Department, in cooperation with
the local Mazda Service
Representative, will review the case to
determine if everything possible has
been done to ensure your satisfaction.
Please recognize that the resolution of
service problems in most cases
requires the use of your Mazda
dealer's service facilities, personnel
and equipment. We urge you to follow
the above three steps in sequence for
most effective results.

▼Mediation/Arbitration Program
Occasionally a customer concern
cannot be resolved through Mazda's
Customer Satisfaction Program. If after
exhausting the procedures in this
manual your concern is still not
resolved, you have another option.
Mazda Canada Inc. participates in an
arbitration program administered by
the Canadian Motor Vehicle
Arbitration Plan (CAMVAP). CAMVAP
will advise you about how your
concern may be reviewed and resolved
by an independent third party through
binding arbitration.
Your complete satisfaction is the goal
of Mazda Canada Inc. and our dealers.
Mazda's participation in CAMVAP
makes a valuable contribution to our
achieving that goal. There is no charge
for using CAMVAP. CAMVAP results
are fast, fair and final as the award is
binding on both you and Mazda
Canada Inc.
▼Canadian Motor Vehicle
Arbitration Plan (CAMVAP)
If a specific item of concern arises,
where a solution cannot be reached
between an owner, Mazda, and/or
one of its dealers (that all parties
cannot agree upon), the owner may
wish to use the services offered by the
Canadian Motor Vehicle Arbitration
Plan (CAMVAP).
CAMVAP uses the services of Provincial
Administrators to assist consumers in
scheduling and preparing for their
arbitration hearings. However, before
you can proceed with CAMVAP you
must follow your Mazda dispute
resolution process as outlined
previously.
CAMVAP is fully implemented in all
provinces and territories.
Consumers wishing to obtain further
information about the Program should
contact the Provincial Administrator at
1 (800) 207-0685, or by contacting
the Canadian Motor Vehicle
Arbitration Plan Office at:

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 ffi 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 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 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 Je rsey Avenue, SE., Washington, DC, 20590.
