MAZDA3 4-cyl

  • Manual transmission
  • 34,981 miles
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.
