THE FRONT ENGINE CRADLE/SUBFRAME, LOWER CONTROL ARMS IS RUSTED/CORRODED TO THE POINT THAT I WAS ADVISED CAR WOULD NOT PASS INSPECTION AND THAT IF PARTS FAILED, ENGINE WOULD FALL UNDER CAR AND I COULD LOOSE ALL STEERING/BRAKES. PER REQUEST FROM MAZDA CAR WAS TAKEN TO DEALER WHO CONFIRMED EXTENT OF CORROSION. THIS CORROSION DID NOT HAPPEN IN AN INSTANT AFTER WARRANTY BUT STARTED AND CONTINUED TO WORSEN DURING WARRANTY PERIOD. ONLY SAW THIS WHEN NON-DEALER WAS PUTTING NEW TIRES ON CAR AND NOTED EXTENT OF CORROSION.

THERE ARE TWO PROBLEMS WITH THE TURN SIGNAL. FIRST AND FOREMOST, ON VEHICLES THAT ARE EQUIPPED WITH LED HEADLIGHTS AND LED DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS, IT IS VERY HARD TO DISTINGUISH THE TURN INDICATOR SINCE IT IS AN INCANDESCENT BULB, IT IS NOT AS BRIGHT AS THE LED DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS THAT WHEN THEY ARE ILLUMINATED AND LOOKING STRAIGHT AT THE VEHICLE, IT IS HARD TO TELL IF THE TURN SIGNAL IS ACTIVATED. THIS COULD BE FIXED BY EXTINGUISHING THE DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHT TEMPORARILY WHILE THE TURN SIGNAL ON THE SIDE WHICH THE INDICATOR IS ACTIVATED. IN ADDITION, THE FRONT MARKER BULB IS HARD TO DISTINGUISH FROM THE SIDE, IT SHOULD BE A SEPARATE BULB ON THE ASSEMBLY. THE REAR MARKER LIGHT IS MUCH MORE PRONOUNCED AND VISIBLE NOT ONLY BECAUSE IT IS AN LED BULB, BUT BECAUSE IT IS A SEPARATE FIXTURE FROM THE TURN SIGNAL AMBER COMBINATION LAMP.
