ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM FAILURE VEHICLE, MAZDA 3 MANUAL, WAS RETURNED TO DEALER AFTER AIRBAG RECALL MAINTENANCE WAS PERFORMED. VEHICLE'S ELECTRICAL SYSTEM SUFFERED FROM MANY COMPLAINTS. SERVICE DEALERSHIP STATED THAT A LOOSE GROUND WIRE AT ONE OF THE FUSE PANELS WAS THE FAULT. VEHICLE'S ELECTRICAL SYSTEM RAN AS PROMISED FOR MONTHS UNTIL BOTH LOW-BEAM HEADLAMPS BLEW AT THE SAME TIME. THE DEALERSHIP HAS BEEN NOTIFIED AND ACTION WILL TAKE PLACE. I HAVE EXPERIENCED SEVERAL ELECTRICAL FAULTS IN THE VEHICLE AND ASSUME MANY MORE ARE TO COME. SAFETY WAS SEVERELY COMPROMISED. NO HEADLAMPS AT NIGHT IN A CONSTRUCTION ZONE IS VERY MUCH A PROBLEM. *JB

AIR BAGS
WHEN A PASSENGER WHO IS 5'2" AND WEIGHS 95 POUNDS SITS ON THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT OF MY 2011 MAZDA 3, THE AIRBAG LIGHT INDICATES THAT THE PASSENGER-SIDE AIRBAG IS NOT ON. I'VE TAKEN THE CAR TO THE MAZDA DEALER SEVERAL TIMES, BUT THEY COULDN'T FIX IT. ON MY OTHER CAR (A HONDA) AND ON ALL PREVIOUS MAZDA MODELS I'VE OWNED (323 AND PROTEGE), THIS SAME PASSENGER HAS NEVER HAD A PROBLEM WITH AIRBAGS DETECTING HER PRESENCE AS WE NOW DO WITH THE MAZDA 3. IS THERE A NATIONAL SAFETY REGULATION THAT MAZDA IS VIOLATING WITH PASSENGER AIRBAGS THAT DON'T DEPLOY WHEN AN ADULT IS SITTING IN THE SEAT? IS THERE A MINIMUM WEIGHT AND HEIGHT STANDARD THAT MAZDA'S PASSENGER-SIDE AIRBAGS SHOULD BE MEETING? I CAN'T IMAGINE THAT SUCH A STANDARD WOULD NOT INCLUDE AN ADULT WHO IS 5'2" AND WEIGHS 95 POUNDS. I'VE SEEN A DISCUSSION ON THE INTERNET AMONG OWNERS WHO HAVE HAD THIS SAME PROBLEM: HTTP://MECHANICS.STACKEXCHANGE.COM/QUESTIONS/1673/2011-MAZDA3-AIRBAG-DISABLED-FOR-LIGHT-PASSENGER. *TR
