Interesting, just notice that the dealer did not fill up the washer fluid at all. Maybe they forgot it prior to delivery? Hopefully they did not forget anything else during the pre-delivery process.

Always check tire pressures upon delivery. Mazda fills them to 50# or so to keep them from flat-spotting on the trip across the pond and many dealers neglect to drop them to the correct pressures before delivery.

Thanks for the feedback. I will check the tire pressures as well.

You should check everything. They make mistakes. Had a friend who blew the motor b/c the dealer did not hand tighten the oil filter. I typically change ours but if we do it at the dealer I have them show me they tightened both the plug and the filter. My friends dealer replaced the engine at the dealers expense but it was still a headache even though they took care of everything.
