2007 MAZDA MAZDA3 Complaints

THE FIBERGLASS TUNNEL HEAT SHIELD HAD DETERIORATED AND PARTS OF THE FIBERGLASS WERE FALLING ONTO THE EXHAUST PIPING AND CATALYTIC CONVERTER AND BURNING. THE ODOR FROM THE BURNING WAS NOTICEABLE BOTH INSIDE THE CAR AND WHEN STANDING OUTSIDE NEXT TO THE ENGINE. BURNING OCCURRED BOTH WHEN THE CAR WAS STATIONARY AND IN MOTION.

POWER STEERING WENT OUT, AS WELL AS THE CLOCK AND RADIO. THIS HAPPENED ON FRIDAY.

MY DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING ON CITY STREET WHEN SHE WAS INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT BACK IN OCTOBER 2018 WERE SHE FLIPPED INTO A STREAM. SHE ESCAPED WITH BRUISES AND CUTS, I AM VERY THANKFUL THAT NOTHING WORSE HAPPEN TO HER. WHEN THE WRECKER WAS PULLING HER CAR OUT, I NOTICED THAT THE ROOF OF THE CAR WAS CRUSHED IN AS WELL AS THE FRONT AND BACK OF THE VEHICLE. THE MAZDA 3 THAT WE PURCHASED FOR OUR DAUGHTER WAS TOTALED BUT NO AIRBAGS EVER CAME OUT. THE COP, EMS WORKER, AND I WAS WONDERING WHY NONE OF THE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. I KEPT CHECKING TO SEE IF THERE WAS A RECALL ON HER CAR BUT THE WEBSITE KEEPS SAYING 0. I REALLY THINK THIS SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED PROMPTLY!

POWER STEERING IS NOT WORKING PROPERLY. IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO TURN THE STEERING WHEEL WHEN AT A COMPLETE STOP. SOMETIMES I NEED TO SLAM ON THE BRAKES IN ORDER TO PREVENT A CRASH DUE TO NOT BEING ABLE TO CONTROL THE DIRECTION OF THE VEHICLE.

I HAVE PURCHASED MULTIPLE SETS OF NEW TIRES FOR THIS CAR BECAUSE I AM HAVING THE SAME ISSUE THAT ALL THE COMPLAINTS SAY ABOUT THE TIRES WEARING ON THE INSIDE WALLS. I HAVE HAD A FEW PROFESSIONALS LOOK TO FIND WHAT IS CAUSING THIS AND NONE OF THEM CAN FIND ANYTHING. I NOW EXPERIENCE SHAKING OF MY CAR WHILE DRIVING OVER 40 MPH. MY TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT COMES ON AND OFF WHENEVER. JUST IN THE PAST YEAR I HAVE PURCHASED 6 NEW TIRES. I AM AFRAID I WILL DIE IN AN ACCIDENT IF DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY. PLEASE HELP!! MY TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT COMES ON, THE CAR SHAKES, THE INSIDE OF THE FRONT TIRES AND BACK DRIVER SIDE WEAR DOWN TO THE THREADS ON THE INSIDE.

I HAD A SERIOUS ACCIDENT BECAUSE MY STEERING LOCKED UP SO I COULDN'T STEER MY STEERING WHEEL . I ROLLED MY CAR AND NEARLY WAS KILLED

WHEN I WAS DRIVING MY STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP, MY RADIO TURNED OFF AND TURNED BACK ON AND MY POWER STEERING LIGHT CAME ON. I WAS GOING AROUND A CURVE SO IT WAS REALLY UNSAFE AND I COULD HAVE WRECKED. SUDDENLY THE LIGHT TURNED OFF AND EVERYTHING WAS FINE, ABOUT 3 MINUTES LATER IT HAPPENED AGAIN. THEN WENT BACK TO NORMAL.

TAKATA RECALL. THE MOTOR TO THE SUNROOF CAME DOWN AND PULLED WIRES LOSE TO CAUSE THE MOTOR IN THE SUNROOF TO BURN UP. WHEN IT HAPPENED THE MAZDA DEALER SAID O WELL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 MAZDA 3. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE FAILED AND THE VEHICLE BEGAN JERKING AND SHAKING. ALSO, WHEN THE GEARS WERE SHIFTED, THE VEHICLE JERKED VIOLENTLY. IN ADDITION, THE "CHECK ENGINE" AND "AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION" INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. WILSON AUTOMOTIVE IN ORANGE COUNTY, CALIFORNIA WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THE WARRANTY ON THE VEHICLE HAD EXPIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 2,400.

WHEN DRIVING YOU LOOSE POWER AND POWER STEERING. ALSO I UNDER STAND THIS IS UNDER RECALL, BUT THEY CUT THE RECALL SHORT OF MY DATE OF MANUFACTURE OF 01/07
