Who needs articles when we have recalls:shrug
I haven't seen a single article about these cars having any more issues due to rust than any other vehicle and, after 185k miles, I still take corners faster than I should and enjoy every second of it. The only things on Mazdas I've seen fall apart due to corrosion (after roughly 8 years) are the upper strut mounts in the rear.
If I've got any "imminent failure areas" they would've broken a long time ago.
