They may complain about dried sand causing poor appearance. Since the drain hole on the dust cover is located in an improper position, water may not be able to completely drain which results in the accumulation of water and sand. To eliminate this concern, the dust cover (below) has been modified to drain the water more easily.","document":{"url":"https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2021/MC-10202692-0001.pdf","alternate_url":"https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2021/MC-10202692-9999.pdf","confirmed":false},"url":"https://open.wenmarpro.com/bulletins/10202692","components":[{"id":"equipment","name":"Equipment and accessories","parent":null},{"id":"fuel-system","name":"Fuel system","parent":null}],"codes":[],"topics":[],"vehicles":[{"make":"MAZDA","model":"MAZDA3","year_from":2019,"year_to":2021,"match":"exact","vehicle_ids":["2019_mazda_mazda3","2020_mazda_mazda3","2021_mazda_mazda3"]}],"as_of":"2026-10-19","note":"A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it.
