Owner-reported complaints naming the airbag system, filed with NHTSA
Data refreshed
Airbags reportsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

I WAS TOLD BY SERVICE DEPARTMENT THAT MAZDA WILL NOT COVER REPLACEMENT OF DRIVERS SIDE AIR BAG INFLATOR. I ASKED PARTS DEPARTMENT IF I COULD PURCHASE DRIVERS SIDE INFLATOR. THEY SAID THAT THE PART WAS DISCONTINUED. I DON'T FEEL SAFE DRIVING MY VEHICLE. WHAT IS THE SOLUTION TO THIS PROBLEM? *TR
