Genuine Mazda Parts and Service
When planning your maintenance services, consider your Mazda
dealership for all your vehicle’s needs.
Get the most from your service and maintenance visits
There are a lot of reasons why visiting your Mazda Dealership for all
your service needs is a great way to help keep your vehicle running
great.
Convenience
Many Dealerships have extended evening and Saturday hours to make
your service visit more convenient. How’s that for quality service?
Factory-trained Technicians
Mazda service technicians participate in extensive factory-sponsored
certification training to help them become experts on the operation of
your vehicle. Ask your Dealership about the training and certification
their technicians have received.
Factory Authorized Systems Checks
In the event your vehicle experiences a component related concern,
please contact your Mazda dealership. The Mazda Motor Corporation
Trained Technicians who work at Mazda dealerships are specifically
trained to understand your vehicle.
A proper repair begins with a thorough system check. Factory
Authorized Systems Checks can ONLY be found at a Mazda dealership. In
some circumstances, the Technician may need to request your
authorization to perform additional operations to determine the final
diagnosis. The Technician’s goal is to ensure that your vehicle is fixed
right the first time, at the best value to you.
The following list represents several of the Factory Authorized Systems
Checks available at participating Mazda Dealerships:
•Climate Control
• Check Engine Light
• All Wheel Drive/Four-Wheel Drive
• Automatic Transmission
• Engine Cooling/Cabin Heating
• Suspension/Steering
• Charge/Start/Battery
