I came to Mazda from Honda because their quality has gone downhill. I still own 3 Hondas though. Op, did you get Honda Care? If you haven't and were still thinking about it, you can get it online for 1/3 to 1/2 of what your dealer probably offered you.

Basically this is very similar to my problem in this video:
