Mazda6 sedans aren't the only cars with spider issues. Honda issued a Technical Service Bulletin to its dealers in the summer of 2009 for the same problem involving the same species of spider, but decided against issuing a recall.

Mazda recently had to recall 52,000 cars in the U.S. because so-called Yellow Sac spiders were sometimes found nesting in a gasoline tank vent tube. The spider nests obstructed the tube, causing air pressure problems in the gas tank. That sometimes led to cracks that could have caused a fire risk, leading Mazda to issue the safety recall.
