2007 MAZDA MAZDA6 Complaints

I HAVE A 2007 MAZDA 6 AND UNFORTUNATELY RECENTLY AFTER I TURNED ON THE SEAT WARMER I SMELLED BURNING LEATHER. I THEN FELT A BURNING SENSATION ON MY THIGH. I QUICKLY MOVED AWAY THEN NOTICED THAT MY SEAT WAS ON FIRE. THE SEAT WARMER BURNT A WHOLE IN THE SEAT. THE THREADS LOOKED LIKE THE BLAZING WICK ON A LIT CANDLE. A RED GLARE WAS SEEN UNDER THE REST OF THE SEAT. I CONTACTED MAZDA AND WAS TOLD THAT ITS THE AGE OF THE VEHICLE, ITS WEAR AND TEAR AND THEREFORE ITS CUSTOMER COST TO REPAIR. THE ASSOCIATE DIDN'T EVEN BOTHER TO LOOK AT THE DAMAGE. HE SAID THAT HE COULD GIVE ME AN ESTIMATE OF HOW MUCH IT WOULD COST FOR THE REPAIRS. CUSTOMER PAY. THIS IS VERY SERIOUS BECAUSE IF I HAD NO SENSATION IN MY THIGHS I COULD HAVE ENDED UP WITH A THIRD DEGREE BURN. ALSO, THIS IS NOT AN ISOLATED INCIDENT AS EVIDENCED BY REPORTS ON THE INTERNET INCLUDING MAZDA'S WEBSITE. HTTP://FORUM.MAZDA.CLUB.COM/ELEMENT/ELECTRICAL "(PIC) HELP!! SEAT HEATER BURNS A HOLE THROUGH MY LEATHER SEAT". INJURY: I USED A COLD COMPRESS ON MY THIGH IMMEDIATELY, AND THEREFORE CURRENTLY DO NOT HAVE ANY VISIBLE MARKS ON MY THIGH.

THE LOW BEAM LIGHT OF MY MAZDA 6 IS EXTREMELY DIM, MOSTLY ON THE RAINY DAY. PEOPLE SITTING NEXT TO ME ALWAYS ASKED ME DID I ACTUALLY TURN ON THE LIGHT? I SAW THE MAZDA FORUM ONLINE, PEOPLE OTHER THAN ME ALWAYS COMPLAINED THE LIGHT TOO. IT REALLY AFFECT THE SAFETY PROBLEM. *TR

I CURRENTLY OWN A 2007 MAZDA6 AND HAVE AN AIRBAG INDICATOR LIGHT ON ALL THE TIME. YESTERDAY I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM MAZDA INFORMING ME OF AN AIRBAG RECALL. THE DATE ON THE LETTER IS LISTED AS FEBRUARY 2015. I TRIED THEIR WEBSITE AND CAN'T GET AN E-MAIL TO ANYONE. THEY DON'T LIST A PHONE NUMBER TO CALL. THEY DO HOWEVER GIVE YOUR E-MAIL ADDRESS.SO THIS LEAVES ME OUT IN THE COLD WITH ONLY ONE WAY TO SEEK HELP AND IT IS FROM YOUR DEPT.THE LETTER INDICATES THAT IN CERTAIN SITUATIONS THE AIRBAG COULD DEPLOY. IN THE LETTER IT STATES TO WAIT FOR THE SECOND LETTER BECAUSE PARTS AREN'T AVAILABLE. THIS MAKES MY SAFETY AT RISK AND SEEMS AS THOUGH MAZDA ISN'T REALLY CONCERNED. CAN YOU HELP ME GET IN TOUCH WITH SOMEONE WHO CAN LOOK AT MY CAR AND FIX THIS PROBLEM. IT IS MY ONLY VEHICLE. I'M NOW AFRAID TO DRIVE THIS CAR BUT HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO TAKE THAT RISK.
