I was driving today in the Bronx, with Waze running on my phone which was charging from the 12v, and listening to my Ipod thru the USB, when I got red light camera warnings thru the stereo speakers! It was definitely not Waze because that was speaking thru the phone speaker. The nav system...

... a.k.a. map light 'On.' File this under 'Do as I say, not as I do.' Hopped out of the car last Sunday, lifting something heavy (can't remember what it was) off the passenger seat. Hand bumped the roof in the area of the map lights, sunglasses holder. I was in a hurry so I paid no further...

Long story short. My 2014 Mazda3 sGT (2.5L) met it's demise and now I am looking to replace it with similiar. Given the circumstances of it's demise, I'm thinking of getting the technology package with Smart City Braking as well. I know exactly what I got in my 2014 model and remember the...

I recently was upgraded by the dealer from V31 to V55. Since then, I have not noticed any improvements of any sort, but the new version does have one annoying "feature". While listening to XM, if I go to the Favorites list and select a station on the list, on V31 it used to then go back to the...

2014 Mazda3 GTS I had been unhappy with the fact that I could not change the nav volume without stopping the car to get it into setup. How unfriendly, I often set a destination where I know the route for the first phase of the trip and don't want the interruption but want directions as I near...
