Hyundai and Kia are telling the owners of nearly 92,000 vehicles in the U.S. to park them outside because an electronic controller in an oil pump can overheat and cause fires.

    Ahh so they did, I wasn’t sure so I didn’t mention it. 2023 was the last year then… A used one can still be very new I suppose.

    I guess even Mazda has to comply to the demand for SUVs and Crossovers…

      Yeah I will absolutely be buying used this time around. The cost difference of a car only 3 years old makes it very hard to go new. I was just looking on their site to get the information, that is a first time a car just didn’t exist anymore like that for me!

        Yeah new cars are not worth it for most people, I’ve only heard good things about new Mazda’s so definitely worth doing some research on
