The contact stated that upon inspecting the vehicle, the contact became aware that the tail light bulbs was extremely hot, which caused the reflectors to separate from the tail light housing.

After a year or so of owning the vehicle, the moisture and fog appeared in the inner tail light housing, passenger side. I have reported the problem to a Mazda dealership but they said it is normal and Mazda will not replace the tail light housing. Eventually, more and more water started to accumulate inside, where at points the housing would be completely foggy and excessive liquid would be visible in the corner of the housing from few feet of distance. It's only matter of time before the water causes additional electrical problems, not to mention the complete loss of light visibility and housing transparency, to all other drivers who are in the rear. Mazda needs to correct this issue instead of saying it is normal. My car is parked in a garage and it is not exposed too outside weather factors at all times, during the day. It is well protected. I have reported the issue to Mazda several times but with no success.

The original factory bulbs of the tail light / brake light on both the driver and passenger sides of my 2009 Mazda 6 touring are melting the red plastic inside the lens and becoming deformed. This is causing visibility issues for vehicles behind me as the light is shining through as white instead of red. The exterior lens is not damaged, just the interior lens closest to the bulbs. I have contacted the dealer where I purchased my car and no recalls have been issued for this problem. I believe this is a manufacturer design flaw that could lead to a fire and reduced brake light visibility for drivers driving behind me.

The inner tail light lenses on both the driver & passenger side of my 2010 Mazda 6 I touring are physically melting and becoming severely deformed. The outer, clear lenses are not damaged and the melting is originating in the vicinity of the bulbs. Car has not been altered from the mfg and bulbs are manufacturer recommended. Car has 48,000 miles on it and beyond the 36,000 mfg warranty therefore Mazda will not replace them for free. I believe this is a supplier, design or manufacturing defect that can possibly cause a fire or reduced brake light visibility and this part should not melt. I have pictures and can send them as reference. A search of the internet showed a few other incidents with defective Mazda tail lights on other models and years similar to this. I am uncertain how wide spread this situation is.
