Well, its not stoopid. Its honest. And people remember things like that. When its between two cars, people will reccommend the mazda over the other car, because they have had good honest relationships with the mazda guys.
Plus, it costs mazda like nothing. 500 bucks a car is negligible to a company like that, and the percentage of people who are actually going to do anything about it is small im sure. Plus the free labor means almost nothing to teh mechanics, they dont get paid quite as much, but they still get paid.
Its a win-win situation, both for mazda and for the owners.
