Using your vehicle as an ambulance
WARNING:
Do not use this vehicle as an ambulance.
Your vehicle is not equipped with an ambulance preparation package.
DATA RECORDING
Service Data Recording
Service data recorders in your vehicle are capable of collecting and
storing diagnostic information about your vehicle. This potentially
includes information about the performance or status of various systems
and modules in the vehicle, such as engine, throttle, steering or brake
systems. In order to properly diagnose and service your vehicle, Mazda
North American Operations, Mazda Canada, and service and repair
facilities may access vehicle diagnostic information through a direct
connection to your vehicle when diagnosing or servicing your vehicle.
Event Data Recording
Other modules in your vehicle — event data recorders — are
capable of collecting and storing data during a crash or near
crash event. The recorded information may assist in the
investigation of such an event. The modules may record
information about both the vehicle and the occupants, potentially
including information such as:
•
how various systems in your vehicle were operating;
•
whether or not the driver and passenger seatbelts were buckled;
•
how far (if at all) the driver was depressing the accelerator
and/or the brake pedal;
•
how fast the vehicle was traveling; and
•
where the driver was positioning the steering wheel.
To access this information, special equipment must be directly
connected to the recording modules. Mazda North American
Operations and Mazda Canada do not access event data recorder
information without obtaining consent, unless pursuant to court
order or where required by law enforcement, other government
authorities or other third parties acting with lawful authority.
Other parties may seek to access the information independently
of Mazda North American Operations and Mazda Canada.
