Did you know that many children die each year of heatstroke because they were left unattended in the back seat of a car? Almost all of these cases happened unintentionally, simply due to the parents or caregivers forgetting that the child was back there. Mazda is committed to helping families in Worcester and Framingham, MA prevent these accidental deaths. That's why they've joined fellow automakers in a pledge to put the rear seat reminder feature in essentially all cars and trucks by model year 2025 or sooner. This application will function similar to the front seatbelt reminder system, by sending you an audio and visual alert each time you park your car. This also helps you remind your children to unbuckle their seatbelts, or prompts you to reach back and help your kids unbuckle.
Mazda is already making safety a priority in every car and SUV they build. Marlboro drivers will appreciate that all Mazda vehicles are constructed with the rigid SKYACTIV®-Body with ring structure, seatbelts with pretensioners and load limiters, anti-intrusion brake pedals, and SRS airbag systems.
