NHTSA — Seat Belts: Front: Warning Light/Devices Problems

CarComplaints.com Notes: Except for a minor issue with cracked motor mounts, the 2008 MAZDA3 is a fantastic vehicle with a great reputation.

If you need to replace the motor mounts, first ask your dealer if they'll cover it -- the motor mounts were dealt with in a TSB & were recalled for some model years. Otherwise buy aftermarket motor mounts -- owners report this solves the problem. If you use the same OEM parts, they may just crack again.

The warning chime for seat belts not being used is inaudible on the 2008 Mazda3 even with all accessories turned off. The dealer explained that they were changed due to customer complaints that previous years were too loud and persistent. This is a very serious safety issue and the dealer checked it out and declared "that's the way they are".
