Safety & Tech Across Trims

Common Problem

TL;DR
• Transmission issues are a significant concern. • Interior rattling and build quality complaints are prevalent. • Some electronic features may malfunction.
Transmission Issues
Several users have reported transmission failures in their 2023 Mazda 3, often at low mileage. One owner experienced a complete transmission failure at 9,000 miles, with the dealership unable to diagnose the issue initially. Another user had a similar experience with their transmission failing at 5,000 miles. These issues seem to be recurring across different model years, suggesting a potential systemic problem with Mazda's transmissions.
Vibration and Gear Shifting Problems
Some owners have reported persistent vibrations when accelerating, particularly around 2,000 RPM in gears above second. This issue is accompanied by inconsistent gear shifts, ranging from smooth to abrupt. Despite multiple visits to dealerships, some users have not found a resolution, indicating that this might be a common but unresolved issue.
Interior Rattling and Build Quality
Interior rattling is another frequently mentioned issue. Users have reported rattles in various parts of the car, including the dashboard and B-pillar. These problems appear to affect both Japanese-built and Mexican-built vehicles, although there is some belief that Japanese VINs might offer better build quality ,.
Electronic and Tech Feature Malfunctions
There are reports of electronic and tech features malfunctioning, such as scan lines on digital gauge clusters and other electronic inconsistencies. While these issues may not be as widespread as the transmission problems, they contribute to concerns about the overall reliability of the vehicle.
Paint Quality Concerns
The paint on certain Mazda 3 models, particularly the gray and red variants, has been noted for chipping easily. This could be a consideration for buyers concerned about maintaining the aesthetic quality of their vehicle over time.
