My 2015 Mazda 3 hatchback was just involved in a hit and run while parked last night. Might be kind of hard to tell the extent of the damage (at least for me), but was wondering how bad this might look like to others. Is that bent metal bar in the top-down view as bad as I fear? Or is this all...

Pep boys replaced the neutral safety switch and shift cable on my Mazda 3 2008 sedan after their service advisor damaged it ( I never signed the paperwork to have him even touch the car and he shouldn't have moved it at all to begin with)Anyway I don’t feel they have put it back in the working...

Hi guys, I was wondering if any of you have used anything in the front bumber to avoid the paint from getting rock marks? Any ideas? In a bit over a year the bumber has gotten a lot of pain chips, never happened like this with any other car I have owned in the pass. I always keep over two car...

Mine's a 2015 Mazda 3 S grand touring with the Technology package. This includes the Smart City Brake Support (SCBS). My car recently nudged into the garage door. Very minimal damages, hardly noticeable. But yes, the paint chipped off here and there. Bottom line: the SCBS failed to work. After...

I have a wrecked 2006 Mazda 3 and the fresh air intake duct is destroyed. Can anyone tell me if I really need to replace this part or if the car can be driven without this part. Thanks in advance.

Gotta love brothers.... The other night, after picking my brother up to come and borrow my dad's car and having him ride in my M3 for the first time, he thought it a good idea to use my dad's car to scratch my rear bumper with. He went to back out of the driveway, and since our driveway narrows...

Rims/tires delivered via UPS from Tirerack last night and one rim has been damaged. Freakin out right now, not a happy camper. Tirerack and UPS were closed so I sent an email to Tireracks customer service and to buddy that helped me with my order. Plan on calling UPS when they open up for...

First time doing any audio work and i already regret trying to upgrade over the stock radio (car audio is not my thing). While in the process of installing my new head unit, i yanked too hard on the radio connector and as a result, one the of the wires came loose from the pin. There is no way to...

Hello fellow Mazda owners, I own a 2011 Mazdsa 3 Sport 2.5L. I had my vehicle lowered at around 12,000KM on some Canuck Motorsport 1.75" springs at a shop. The springs on these Mazdas I've now been told are virutally self setting however my passenger side front always made a noise either in...

I have a question about the grille inserts on the MZ3 hatch. The right grille on my car got poked by a stick today, leaving a hole. Fortunately, there's no serious damage that I can detect. Just cosmetic stuff. I'm planning to patch the hole with tape for now to keep out bugs and pebbles...
