The driver side front headlight bearing has failed. Noticed after 43K miles driven. This is a known failure due to a manufacturing defect (see technical bulletin issued by Mazda) however they won't cover the repair (~$1700) beyond 36,000 miles or 36 months. This is a manufacturer known safety issue which could impair visibility while driving at night and could result in a very dangerous situation. The only "warning" is a temporary fan noise after the vehicle shuts down. As a known manufacturing defect for the manufacturing years referenced in Mazda's technical bulletin, Mazda should cover replacement of the headlamp unit (the bearing is unable to be replaced in isolation) for at least through the life of the powertrain.
