Got a letter in the mail yesterday from Mazda saying they now have a program in place to offer Mazda 3 owners with free reinforcements to doors in order to improve Mazda 3 security. Apparently Mazda 3's are being targeted for break-in's in certain unnamed cities and If I happen to live in one of those unamed cities, my dealer will be contacting me when the required parts are in to upgrade my door entry system...all for no charge. In addition, the letter went on to say that Mazda is recommending that Mazda 3 owners get some sort of after market motion detection entry detection system as added security and Mazda is offering up to $100 to help deal with the purchase and installation of these devices. Anyone else get this letter and if so, have you followed up with the installations ??

Replying to: gretsch6120 (Feb 02, 2008 10:07 am) As mentioned they also suggest "if you have not done so already, you may wish to consider the purchase of a shock sensor alarm system", for which Mazda will "rebate to you up to $100 towards the purchase and installation...". This offer is valid until March 1, 2008. I'm waiting for the call from my dealership but if I havn't heard from them in a couple of weeks I will call them. As for the after market sensor system, I don't plan on getting one....any car can be stolen....thieves can defeat any system. The Mazda's already include an engine immobalizer which at least keeps the amateurs away..the professionals are going to get the car no matter what system you have...just my $0.02..

Mazda's 3 year Roadside Assistance Program has run out on my Mazda 3. Has anyone in Canada tried to extend this program and if so, what did Mazda charge you for the extension. Not sure if Mazda will even allow you to extend. GM did it for a GM car I owned a number of years ago for a nominal annual fee. What are my other Roadside Assistance program options (CAA ??)
