My garage is gated so they will have to deal with a 92lb German Shepard if they want anything out of my car. My parking space at work is also gated with cameras. At the store and such places I am **** out of luck. BUt when we go out I never take my car so......
Welcome and sorry to hear about the situation. I had my old Civic broken into three times and stolen once. They actually cut the engine out with a plasma cutter! That was when I lived in apartments though.

Hey if your car gets targeted than so be it, nothing you or any alarm is gonna do to stop it (unless your car has been bullit proofed)
The major thing that sucks about this is if people hear the report and happen to be walking by your car who would never think about breaking into a vehicle any other time, suddenly decide to try it to see if it works mainly for their curiosity.

I'm going to put a sticker in my windows that says something like "This car has been modified by Mazda to remedy Mazda3 bug. Please do not kick me."

Wait, what am I thinking!?! Let's publicize this as loudly as possible! I know—maybe someone can attach a chart indicating precisely where—and with how much force—to hit the door!!! Or better yet, let's make a video of someone doing it and send it into Dateline!
Honestly, people. God forbid someone can read the numbers on your precious license plate in a photo, but this? This is OK.

Given the recent history of Mazda the fact that you're insinuating people are overreacting is ridiculous.

Oh, and Mazda did a voluntary recall in order to identify & correct the engine issues for the rx8. So, um, yeah, the sky is falling.
