Did Mazda deny warranty claims? We're not saying that other manufacturers don't have problems, we're saying that the warranty service and marketing aren't aligning, there's a product being falsely advertised to some degree.

Edit: I was going to mention that Mazda would be my recommended brand at the moment due to their support of motorsports and they've taken care of the owners that I know of instead of some of the runaround I've seen around here from Subaru and Toyota (fuel pump and initial CEL issues?). I'm sure there's plenty of bad apple cases but it doesn't seem to be the prevailing perception like it is with Subaru.
