DEALER SAYS IT IS A BAD TRANSFER CASE (PTU) WHICH IS NOT COVERED BY SSP92. OTHERWISE THIS REPAIR WOULD HAVE BEEN COMPLETED BY MAZDA. REPAIR ESTIMATE IS $1315.

I RECEIVED A NOTICE THAT WATER MAY ENTER THE FRONT SUSPENSION LOWER ARM BALL JOINT FITTINGS DURING DRIVING. NOTHING HAS HAPPENED SINCE RECEIVING A NOTICE IN SEPTEMBER 2015. THEY SAID PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE AND THEY WILL NOTIFY ME WHEN THEY ARE AVAILABLE.

SO I WAS BACKING UP FROM A PARKING SPACE ON A SHOPPING CENTER AND MY BRAKE PEDAL ON MY MAZDA CX-9 DID NOT STOP IMMEDIATELY. DUE TO THIS PROBLEM I BUMP IN TO SOME ONE ELSE'S CAR. THE PEDAL HAS TURN SO HARD IT WAS DIFFICULT FOR FRACTIONS OF SECONDS TO KNOW WHAT WAS GOING ON. AFTER THE INCIDENT WITH HAVING AN ISSUE WITH THE BRAKE PEDAL. I NOTICE BESIDE BEEN HARD IT STARTED MAKING A SQUEAKY NOICE AND ALSO LIKE AND AIR SOUND UNDER THE DASH BOARD. I FOUND OUT THERE WAS A CLASS ACTION AGAINS MAZDA FOR THEIR BRAKE BOOSTER ON THIS MODEL AND SURE ENOUGH, THAT'S WHAT IT WAS, I'M JUST SO BLESSED IT HAPPENS IN A PARKING LOT AND NOT ON THE FREEWAY. SO I CALLED MAZDA AND THEY SAID THEY WILL COVER THE PART BUT I HAVE TO PAY FOR THE WORK DONE TO THE VEHICLE. SO I DID A RESEARCH ON PRICING AND I FOUND OUT MAZDA IS CHARGING $269.00 FOR THE WOK DONE, SUPPOSEDLY THEM COVERING THE PART, AND OUTSIDE THAT IS JUST AROUND THE SAME PRICE ELSE WHERE. NOT ONLY THAT THEY DID NOT COVER EVERYTHING MOST LIKELY MY INSURANCE MAY GO UP AND TO ADD TO THE PROBLEM THEY WILL CHARGE ME FOR RENTING A CAR WHILE THEY FIX IT. THERE IS NO HELP WITH A PART THAT SHOULD NOT HAVE ANY PROBLEMS IN THE TIME FRAME OF THE YEAR OF THIS VEHICLES. AND IT WAS MANUFACTURE DEFECT.

SUV WOULD GO OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD OR HIGHWAY WHEN TRAVELING A HIGH SPEED. TOOK IT TO DEALER, THEY SAY THAT THEY FOUND OIL & WATER MIX IN THE ENGINE DUE TO WATER PUMP FAILURE, MULTIPLE SYMPTOMS WOULD OCCUR AS DUE TO THIS CONDITION. THIS ISSUE IS VERY SERIES, FIRST YOU GET NO INDICTION OF THE PROBLEM, NOT SURE WHY THE WATER PUMP FAILURE CAUSES WATER TO ENTER THE MOTOR AND MIX WITH OIL, IT MUST BE A MAZDA DESIGN PROBLEM, WHICH THEY SEEM TO KNOW ABOUT AND NEVER ISSUED A RECALL TO GET ALL THE CAR FIXED. IF YOU ARE DRIVING WITH YOUR FAMILY AT 50 MPE IN AN HIGHWAY THE CAR WILL JUST GO OFF AND YOU CAN GET IMPACTED AT THE REAR WITH VERY HORRIBLE CONSEQUENCES. WILL MAZDA ISSUE A RECALL FOR SUCH A SERIES ISSUE?

WHEN BREAKING I HEAR PULSATING SOUND AND VERY DIFFICULT TO BRING THE CAR TO A STOP. THE CAR SLOWS DOWN EVENTUALLY, BUT REQUIRE INTENSE PRESSURE TO BRING THE VEHICLE TO A COMPLETE STOP. THERE IS ALSO A PULSATING NOISE WHEN THE BRAKES ARE APPLIED. IT TAKES ABOUT TWICE THE DISTANCE TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP THAN PREVIOUSLY. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY COULDN'T FIGURE OUT ANYTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR. NO INDICATION OF ANY PROBLEM ON THE DASHBOARD, BUT I CAN DEFINITELY FEEL SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH BREAKING. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE WHEN DRIVING.

WHILE TRAVELING @ ABOUT 15 MPH MADE A RIGHT TURN UP A ONE WAY STREET, CAR MADE A LOUD THUMP SOUND AND LURCHED FORWARD. AT WHICH POINT THE CAR STOPPED AND I WAS NOT ABLE TO MOVE BACK OR FORWARD. EXITED VEHICLE TO FIND DRIVER SIDE WHEEL BROKE OFF AND MOVED FORWARD IN THE WHEEL WELL. MAZDA ROADSIDE WAS CALLED AND FLATBED SERVICE ARRANGED. CAR IS WELL MAINTAINED AND ONLY HAS 74,000 MILES. MAZDA NEEDS TO ACT QUICKLY ON THIS RECALL ISSUE BECAUSE SOME ONE IS GOING TO GET SERIOUSLY INJURED OR KIILLED (DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS)
