THERE IS NO WAY TO ADJUSTMENT THE ALIGNMENT OF THE REAR WHEELS ON THIS YEAR MAZDA MPV, THUS THE TIRES WARE OUT EARLY BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT IN ALIGNMENT. TIRE FAILURE OCCURRED WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY MAZDA DEALER SAYS NO ADJUSTMENT CAN BE DONE AS MAZDA DID NOT PROVIDE A WAY TO CORRECT THIS ALIGNMENT PROBLEM SO EARLY TIRE FAILURE CAN RESULT. MAZDA DEALER WORK SHEET FOR ALIGNMENT STATES THAT THE REAR WHEELS ARE OUT OF FACTORY SPECIFICATION AND IF NOT CORRECTED CAN LEAD TO EXCESSIVE TIRE WEAR, HANDLING AND SAFETY ISSUES. MAZDA BY THERE OWN ADMISSION DID NOT PROVIDED ANY WAY TO CORRECT THIS SAFETY ISSUE. I'M DRIVING A VEHICLE WITH TIRE SAFETY ISSUES DUE TO LACK OF ABILITY TO ALIGN THE REAR WHEELS TO MAZDAS OWN SPECIFICATIONS. *TR

ALSO, THE TRANSMISSION FAILED ON THIS VEHICLE COMPLETELY AT 55 THOUSAND MILES. WE HAD TAKEN IT IN 3 TIMES BEFORE IT FAILED AND THEY SAID NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH IT. *TR
