Pardon my French, but I think this is pretty f*cking awesome. Way to step up, Mazda.
IRVINE, Calif. (April 15, 2020) – Mazda North American Operations (MNAO) announced it will provide free standard oil changes and enhanced cleaning services for U.S. healthcare workers at participating dealers nationwide. This program, which begins on April 16, is not limited to Mazda owners and is available for most makes and models from other manufacturers. The Essential Car Care program, developed in partnership with the Mazda dealer network, will invest a minimum of $5 million as part of the initiative.
“Supporting the communities where we live and work is rooted deeply in Mazda’s 100-year history. We are honored to give back to those dedicated to saving lives during this pandemic,” MNAO President Jeff Guyton said. “We understand the important role vehicles play in people’s lives, and by partnering with our dealer network, we hope to make a meaningful impact in communities around the country.”
Basically, if you're a U.S. healthcare worker, you can get free oil changes and car washes (maybe professional detail work or interior cleaning as well?), even if you don't currently own or drive a Mazda. As long as the participating dealership can accommodate the vehicle (i.e. procure the correct oil filter/oil type and it fits in their wash bay), the dealership will take care of you.
Mazda deserves to be recognized for this (which is part of why I made this a sticky. They are stepping up to support, even though they are a much smaller operation than many other manufacturers.
If you know of any U.S. healthcare workers with vehicles in need of an oil change or car wash, ask them to contact a participating Mazda dealership!
Go Mazda!
