Mazda stability control problems

Owners have filed 179 complaints with NHTSA about the stability control on Mazda vehicles — 1% of everything reported about the brand, across 15 models. The model that accounts for most of them is the Mazda MAZDA3, worst in 2012.

These are raw counts. A model that sold in millions appears near the top for that reason alone — the grade never compares one model with another.
