2 recalls are on federal record across the 1992–1996 MX-3, listed by year below. The manual carries the manufacturer's diagnostic and repair procedures behind the systems involved; the recall repairs themselves are performed free by Mazda dealers.
Why do some MX-3 years cost more?
Every MX-3 year is $29.99.
