What's going on with these import companies??
First bad floor mats and now this...
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/us_mazda_recall
I HATE spiders, hate hate hate them. I'd rather take my chances with the Toyota floor mats rather than deal with spiders in a Mazda.

Heh...the spiders like to go zoom-zoom.
A guy I work with had to leave his 2010 Altima with an exterminator for a week because it was infested with baby spiders. They were crawling out of the vents, the headliner, and about every other seam you can think of. It was crazy.

Spiders love to web up in cars, especially when they sit for a bit. Lots of times they are behind hub caps or lug nut covers but I have seen them in evap **** too. Crazy it forced a recall though.

Yeah I've definitely seen some nests. A squirrel ate some abs wiring and then a week later did it again and had a huge nest set up

We had a customer come in complaining of a grease leak. We found a squirrel jammed between the I-shaft and the transmission. Everytime they turned the wheel more of remains would drip on the floor. I usually have a strong stomach but almost lost my lunch when I saw that.
