Mazda: MAZDA, flat rock michigan, model ford


Question
WHICH COUNTRY MAKES MAZDA?

Answer
Depends on the model.  Ford owns a large percentage of Mazda and has a plant in Flat Rock Michigan where a great many of the Mazdas are made.  The rest are made in Japan.  You can tell by looking at the VIN (Vehicle Identification Number) which is located on the dash behind the windshield.  If the first digit is J, it is made in Japan.  Hope this answers your question and best of luck to you.  Bud
