Neither the NHTSA nor the IIHS has a review of the Mazda Miata RF, which means there are no safety ratings available. The standard safety equipment should give prospective customers peace of mind, however.
NHTSA safety ratings are not available at this time.
Both models get four airbags, traction and stability control, ABS brakes, a rearview camera, and a tire pressure monitoring system. Standard driver assistance features include Smart City Brake Support, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, and lane departure warning. Grand Touring models gain rain-sensing wipers, traffic sign recognition, and automatic headlights.

The Mazda Miata hasn't been a part of the J.D. Power Ownership Survey since 2019, and in that year is scored a rather disappointing 73 out of a possible 100 points. But the lack of recalls relative to other brands is pleasing, and while early model years had a few, 2020 and 2021 models are recall-free. Each MX-5 Miata RF is sold with a three-year/36,000-mile basic warranty and a five-year/60,000-mile powertrain warranty.
