This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
It has happened twice in 6 years and 5 months. Road hazard like a torn wheel from other car or divider on road. If when driving it goes over it during night time the computer within the Mazda 3 triggers automatic deflation of the car tires.
While driving down freeway in clear warm weather, the passenger rear tire had the side wall blow out. This produced about a 2 inch square hole in the tire.
While exiting a traffic circle, I heard a pop and the car swerved. I corrected but was too late as the front wheel hit the curbing causing the aluminum rim to crack on the passengers side. Upon inspection I found a large rectangular piece of the tire side wall missing. The side wall separation was the tire on the passenger rear side. The rapid deflation caused the car to swerve while exiting the turn. Fortunately I was traveling at a low rate of speed!
