There are many perks to buying a Mazda vehicle, from an enjoyable driving experience to affordable prices. One of the often overlooked perks, however, is the inclusion of the MyMazda app. This is an app created by Mazda which is designed to make owning a Mazda more convenient. Below, we'll highlight some of the things you can do with the MyMazda app, along with how you can get started with it if you already own a compatible Mazda vehicle.
Take Care of Your Vehicle

The biggest feature of the MyMazda app is that it helps you take care of your vehicle. Through the app, you can see the service history for your vehicle so that you know the last time it received service. You can also view the recommended maintenance schedule for your specific vehicle, allowing you to keep your vehicle in the best possible shape by scheduling timely maintenance visits.
The MyMazda app also makes it easy to bring your vehicle in for service. With the app, you can search for a local Mazda dealership and even schedule a service appointment. Finally, the MyMazda app can alert you of any recalls, ensuring that you remain safe while driving your Mazda.
Learn More About Your Mazda
Another great feature of the MyMazda app is that it helps you learn more about your Mazda. Inside the app, you'll find many “How To” videos, which can help you perform a variety of tasks in your vehicle, such as changing a tire or programming some of the technology equipment. The newest Mazda models all come with a lot of technology features, some of which may be new to you. Through the app, you can learn everything you need to know so that you can make the most of your Mazda driving experience.
Get Help While on the Go
If you've ever been stranded on the side of the road because of a problem with your vehicle, you know how frustrating it can be. With the MyMazda app, you can get the help you need in a timely manner. This is because the MyMazda app lets you access Mazda's easy-to-use roadside assistance. You simply let them know your location and the issue you're having, and before long, someone will be there to assist you. Whether you're out of gas, have a flat tire, or need a tow, you can count on Mazda's roadside assistance to help you.
Find Your Vehicle
Have you ever forgotten where you parked your car? With the help of the MyMazda app, this is a problem of the past. The MyMazda app comes with GPS capabilities, which can point you in the direction of your parked vehicle. No more wandering around parking lots or pushing the car alarm button on your keychain until you find it. This is also a helpful feature should you ever be unfortunate enough to have your Mazda stolen.
Get Account Support
There may come a time when you have a question about your vehicle or about your loan/lease agreement. If so, you can easily contact Mazda directly through the MyMazda app. In the app, you'll find options for contacting Mazda either through a Live Chat feature, phone, or email. You can then speak with a customer service representative and have your questions answered.
Save Money
Finally, the MyMazda app can help save you money in a few different ways. Since the MyMazda app helps you track your vehicle's maintenance, you'll have an easier time keeping your Mazda in great shape. This means you'll need fewer costly repairs and are less likely to get into an accident.
In addition to that, the MyMazda app can alert you to new offers, promotions, and service coupons. When you're looking to upgrade your Mazda vehicle, knowing about the latest offers and promotions can help save you money on your next purchase. And since you're going to be taking your Mazda in for maintenance anyway, you might as well take advantage of nearby service coupons to make the service more affordable. Owning and taking care of a vehicle is expensive enough as it is, which makes using the MyMazda app for discounts a welcome addition.
How To Get the MyMazda App
Getting started with the MyMazda app is very simple. First, you just need to make sure you have a compatible vehicle. Any Mazda vehicle that has Mazda's Connected Services is able to connect to the app. All new Mazda vehicles will have this capability, as will some of the older models. Mazda added this service to the Mazda 3 back in 2019, to the CX30 in 2020, and to both the CX5 and the CX9 in 2021. If you have one of these models or newer ones, you can probably use the Mazda app.
To get the MyMazda app, you can download it through either the Apple app store or the Google Play store. Simply search for “MyMazda” and you should find it. After downloading the app, you can create an account and register your vehicle. Registering your vehicle is easy, all you need to do is scan your vehicle's VIN number and the app will do the rest.
As you can see, the MyMazda app can help owners in a lot of different ways.
