How long does the Mazda manufacturer warranty last?
Every new Mazda registered from 1 September 2025 comes with a 6-year or 100,000-mile New Vehicle Warranty, confirmed directly on Mazda's own UK site — comprehensive cover for manufacturing or material defects, whichever limit is reached first. Mazdas registered before that date keep the previous 3-year/60,000-mile warranty.
Anti-perforation (rust) cover runs for 12 years with no mileage limit, protecting against rust perforation from the inside out. Paintwork is covered separately for 3 years, covering paint defects and surface corrosion.
European roadside assistance is included for 3 years or 60,000 miles, covering more than 30 countries.

The 6-year warranty applies based on your vehicle's registration date, not when you bought it — a Mazda registered just before 1 September 2025 gets the older 3-year/60,000-mile cover, even if you buy it new later on. Check your specific registration date if you're unsure which warranty applies to your car.
Electric and plug-in hybrid battery cover
Mazda's electric and plug-in hybrid models get a high-voltage battery warranty of 8 years/100,000 miles from the date of registration, separate from and in addition to the standard vehicle warranty. This applies to Mazda's electric models including the upcoming Mazda6e.
What's not covered
Mazda's warranty covers defects in material or workmanship — not damage from accidents, misuse, or neglect (including racing or competitive driving), and not normal wear-and-tear items. Any modification to the vehicle will likely void the warranty, since Mazda can't verify the quality of non-approved parts or work. Air conditioning refrigerant is guaranteed for the first 12 months only.
Keeping your warranty valid
Most Mazda models need servicing every 12 months or 12,500 miles, whichever comes first (the Mazda 2 Hybrid has a shorter 10,000-mile interval). Mazda uses a digital service record, so a service centre can verify whether your car has been maintained on schedule. The warranty is fully transferable to a new owner if the car is sold while cover remains active.
