Mazda North American Operations realizes that mutual agreement on some issues may not

be possible. As a final step to ensure that your concerns are being fairly considered, Mazda

North American Operations has agreed to participate in a dispute settlement program

administered by the Better Business Bureau (BBB) system, at no cost to you the consumer.

BBB AUTO LINE works with consumers and the manufacturer in an attempt to reach a

mutually acceptable resolution of any warranty related concerns. If the BBB is not able to

facilitate a settlement they will provide an informal hearing before an arbitrator.

You are required to resort to BBB AUTO LINE before exercising rights or seeking remedies

under the Federal Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, 15 U.S.C. § 2301 et seq. To the extent

permitted by the applicable state “Lemon Law”, you are also required to resort to BBB

AUTO LINE before exercising any rights or seeking remedies under the “Lemon Law”. If

you choose to seek remedies that are not created by the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act or

the applicable state “Lemon Law”, you are not required to first use BBB AUTO LINE.

The whole process normally takes 40 days or less. The arbitration decision is not binding on

you or Mazda unless you accept the decision. For more information about BBB AUTO

LINE, including current eligibility standards, please call 1-800-955-5100 or visit the BBB

website at www.bbb.org/autoline.

Being truly committed to customer satisfaction is more than a phrase with Mazda. We hope

to satisfy every customer directly, but if there is ever a question about our decision, Mazda

believes in providing a fast, fair and free method such as the BBB AUTO LINE to ensure

Mazda delivers on our commitment to do the right thing for our customers!

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 7 days 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 Civil 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 Civil 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 Civil 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:



The same nonconformity [a failure to conform to the written warranty that

substantially impairs the use, value or safety of the vehicle] results in a condition that

is likely to cause death or serious bodily injury if the vehicle is driven AND the

nonconformity has been subject to repair two or more times by Mazda or its agents

AND the buyer or lessee has directly notified Mazda of the need for the repair of the

nonconformity; OR



The same nonconformity has been subject to repair 4 or more times by Mazda or its

agents AND the buyer has notified Mazda of the need for the repair of the

nonconformity; OR



The vehicle is out of service by reason of repair of nonconformities by Mazda or its

agents for a cumulative total of more than 30 calendar days after delivery of the

vehicle to the buyer.

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 8-9).

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

5. Present odometer reading

6. Your dealer's name and location

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:
