SEEK COVERAGE UNDER THE CUSTOMER SUPPORT PROGRAM FOR THE ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT LOW PRESSURE FUEL PUMP FOR ADDITIONAL VEHICLES
You may have your Additional Vehicles inspected and, if necessary, repaired by an authorized Mazda Dealer at no cost to you.
The “Additional Vehicles” are certain Mazda vehicles, equipped with a Denso low-pressure fuel pump but were not included in Mazda’s Recall.
The Additional Vehicles include certain 2017-2019 MX-5, 2017-2019 CX-9, 2018-2021 Mazda3, 2017-2019 Mazda6, 2018-2019 CX-3, 2017-2019 CX-5, 2018-2020 Mazda2, and 2020 CX-30.

You do not need to do anything to seek coverage for your Additional Vehicle under the Customer Support Program. If you do not exclude yourself from the Settlement, and the Settlement is finally approved, you will automatically be able to participate in the Customer Support Program.1
The duration of prospective coverage for the fuel pump unit will begin no later than 30 days following the Final Effective Date and run for 15 years measured from the Date of First Use, which is the date the vehicle was originally sold or leased by a Mazda Dealer.

BENEFIT FROM THE EXTENDED NEW PARTS WARRANTY
Mazda shall extend the new parts warranty coverage for the fuel pump kit replaced (“replacement fuel pump kit”) on the Recalled Vehicles pursuant to the Recall.
The Recalled Vehicles are certain Mazda Vehicles, equipped with a Denso low-pressure fuel pump and were included in Mazda’s Recall.
The Recalled Vehicles include certain 2018 Mazda6, 2019 CX-3, 2018-2019 MX-5, 2019-2019 CX-5, 2018-2019 CX-9, 2018 Mazda3, and 2019-2020 Mazda2 vehicle.

You do not need to do anything to seek coverage under the Extended New Parts Warranty. If you do not exclude yourself from the Settlement, and the Settlement is finally approved, the new parts warranty coverage will be extended for 15 years, measured from replacement date, and up to 150,000 miles, whichever comes first.

SEEK COVERAGE UNDER THE LOANER/TOWING PROGRAM
If you own or lease a Covered Vehicle that is having its Fuel Pump replaced pursuant to the Extended New Parts Warranty or the Customer Support Program, you shall be entitled to receive a complimentary loaner or rental vehicle upon reasonable notice to a Mazda dealer, and/or a complimentary tow to the nearest Mazda dealer upon reasonable notice, if the vehicle is inoperable or exhibiting a dangerous condition. You may keep the Loaner Vehicle for up to 24 hours after you drop off your vehicle for repair, or after you are informed by a Mazda Dealer that your vehicle is repaired, whichever is later. If you have a demonstrated need for a Loaner Vehicle similar to your Covered Vehicle, Mazda, through its dealers, will use good faith efforts to satisfy the request.
Details are provided in FAQ 8.

The duration of the Loaner/Towing Program will last during the duration of the Customer Support Program and/or the Extended New Parts Warranty.

FILE A CLAIM TO SEEK REIMBURSEMENT
You may submit Claims for previously paid out-of-pocket expenses incurred to repair or replace a Fuel Pump of Covered Vehicles that were not otherwise reimbursed and that were either (a) incurred prior to the Initial Notice Date; or (b) incurred after the Initial Notice Date and before the Final Effective Date. For out-of-pocket expenses incurred after the Initial Notice Date and before the Final Effective Date, you must provide proof that you were denied coverage by a Mazda dealer prior to incurring the cost.
This is the only way that you can get reimbursed.
