Mazda is a Japanese automobile manufacturer that produces cars, SUVs, and crossovers that are known to be both well designed and reliable. In fact, Consumer Reports ranked Mazda as the most reliable brand of 2020. Popular models such as the Mazda CX-5 and the Mazda MX-5 Miata have impressed drivers across the globe. However, not every Mazda on the road can live up to these standards, as Mazda vehicles have also had their share of defects and recalls.
If you have purchased or leased a Mazda sedan, sports car, SUV, or crossover that has defects that adversely affect the vehicle, even after reasonable attempts to fix the issue, then you may be entitled to compensation. Under California and Federal Lemon Law, the manufacturer must either repair, replace, or offer cash compensation for a vehicle if it is deemed a lemon.
