Battery, car would not start, slow cranking, finally battery dead, AAA started car, said need new battery, took to dealer, whereas dealer said battery was fine...strange this issue was...car has been starting OK since....
Cracked windshield, like many others. The glass is very thin, as intended, to keep the weight down, as per SkyActiv agenda. It gets cracked around the same area for most of the owners, sensor cluster on the top passenger side. Mazda Canada has denied the fact that this is stress crack, but that's the fact nevertheless, as it appeared while the car was standing still parked, and we were sitting on the park bench across. Right before our eyes.
We have our insurance company's authorization to replace it, but will be waiting until it splits, or the fall, due to our deductible.
