THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT.

THE DASH BOARD IS MELTING AND CAUSING PROBLEM SEEING. I RECEIVED A LETTER A WHILE BACK STATING THERE WAS ISSUES WITH THE DASH BOARDS BECOMING STICKY OR MELTING MINE HAS JUST STARTED DOING THIS AND ITS MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO SEE ON REALLY SUNNY DAYS FROM THE GLARE THAT IT REFLECTS ON THE WINDSHIELD ON THE DRIVER SIDE. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS I CALLED MAZDA ABOUT IT AND WAS TOLD THERE WAS NOTHING THEY WAS GONNA DO ABOUT THIS ISSUE. I DONT UNDERSTAND HOW THEY CAN NOT FIX IT WHEN ITS CAUSE OF THE DASHBOARD THEY PUT IN THE CARS. THIS IS NOT ONLY POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE BUT ALSO COULD RISK PEOPLE LIVES. I AM NOT HAPPY ABOUT THIS. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPEN AND ONLY GETTING WORSE AS TIME GOES ON I DONT HAVE A CERTAIN DATE SO I JUST PICKED ONE BELOW

THE CLUTCH FAILED PREMATURELY AT ~45K MILES. WHEN I WAS DRIVING, I NOTICED THE CAR WAS SLOW TO ACCELERATE AFTER SHIFTING. I TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC WHO SAID THE CLUTCH NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AND THAT IT WAS EXTREMELY EARLY FOR IT TO HAVE FAILED.

MY DRIVER'S SEAT ROCKS BACK AND FORTH AS IF A LINK OR SCREW IS MISSING. I TOOK IT TO KEFFER MAZDA IN HUNTERSVILLE, NC FOR THEM TO LOOK AT IT ALONG WITH MY STICKY DASH BOARD OVER TWO MONTHS AGO. THEY REPLACED MY DASH BUT STATED THEY DIDN'T HAVE THE PART FOR MY SEAT. I WAS TOLD THEY WOULD GET IN TOUCH WITH ME ABOUT THE SEAT. I HAVE CALLED THREE TIMES SINCE AND THEY APPEAR TO BE IGNORING ME. THIS ROCKING HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR ABOUT FOUR MONTHS OF LESS. SOMETHING JUST POPPED ONE DAY AND THE ROCKING HAPPENED.

BACK IN OCT OF 2015 MY ABS AND DSC LIGHTS WOULD COME ON AN GO OFF FOR NO REASON. AS OF DECEMBER 2016 THE LIGHTS HAVE REMAINED ON. I REPLACED THE SPEED SENSORS IN EACH WHEEL, CHECKED THE TONE RINGS, TESTED THE WIRING FOR BREAKS, TESTED THE BRAKE LIGHT SWITCH, I HAVE NOTHING LEFT TO CHECK OTHER THAN THE ABS SYSTEMS. I RECENTLY HAD MY CLUTCH REPLACED ON MY 2010 MAZDA 3 S BY MAZDA, WHILE PERFORMING THE WORK I ASKED IF THE TECHNICIAN COULD TELL ME WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS, I WAS TOLD THAT THE ABS PUMP WAS BAD, WAS NOT TOLD IF IT WAS THE COMPUTER MODULE OR THE HYD PUMP MOTOR OR VALVE BODY. BASED ON THE SYMPTOMS, I AM ASSUMING THAT THE CONTROL MODULE IS BAD. I FOUND THAT THERE ARE TSB'S ON THIS PROBLEM WITH MANY COMPLAINTS BY OTHER 2010 MAZDA 3 OWNERS. NHTSA ID: 10053757 TSB ID: SB-04-002-13 NHTSA ID: 10097406 TSB ID: 04-002-13-2812 WHAT CAN BE DONE TO GET MAZDA TO ACCEPT THE FACT THAT THEY HAVE A KNOWN ISSUE?

LOUD NOISE IN BACK SUSPENSION. NOISE OCCURS RUNNING HIGHWAY BUT GETS LOUDER ON A CITY STREET UNKNOWN CAUSE. WHEN TURNING VEHICLE STARTED CLICKS BUT NEED TO KEEP TRYING TO TURN ON. PROBABLY COMPUTER PROBLEM

TAKATA RECALL, I GOT A POSTCARD IN THE MAIL STATING THAT MY CAR MAY HAVE HAD AN AIRBAG SETTLEMENT. NO ACCIDENT HAPPENED, I AM LETTING YOU GUYS KNOW WHAT IS GOING ON. THANKS
