Read complaints for MAZDA MIATA (1996)


The air bag light comes on at start and stays on.the problem has been diagnosed as the back-up battery in the air bag module is shorted out.

Airbag warning light stays on constantly all of the time. Very concerned about airbag failure but no recall info exists.also my pop-up headlights are randomly retracting down whenever they feel like it. No amount of twisting on and off at the steering column switch will make them come back up and i have to resort to the manual popup button located under the emergency flashers. This has almost caused me to crash several times when driving after dark!

The contact owns a 1996 mazda miata. The contact stated that while in park, the driver side air bag inadvertently deployed. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired.the manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 125,000.

I went through a dip (slower than usually taken) in my neighborhood and my airbags deployed. I don't think this should have occured and was due to faulty air bags. The damage to my car reached over $7000, including interior repairs caused from the air bags and undercarriage/alignment damage due to hitting a curb after my temporary blindness and shock. The cuts and bruises dealt to me and my passenger were minimal and did not require medical attention. I then went for over a month without a car because special parts had to be ordered by the body shop. All of this due to faulty air bags in my 1996 mazda miata.

Permission to switch off the air bag
