I was driving my 2012 mazda 3 skyactiv and a couple spiders came out of nowhere almost causing me to crash. i know, stupid. i was able to identify the spiders as the same spider that mazda had already recalled for other model years, yet did not for ours. i'm a little annoyed there are still spiders in there care and may cause fuel problems, and i don't believe i should have to pay to have them removed. *tr
