2010 MAZDA MAZDA6 Complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 MAZDA 6. WHILE DRIVING 30 MPH, A RATTLING NOISE EMITTED FROM THE WHEELS WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT PULLED THE VEHICLE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND STATED THAT THE BRAKES SEIZED WHEN THE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE CONTACT'S RESIDENCE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 29,000.

TAKATA RECALL- THE RECALL NOTICE ON SAFERCAR.GOV SHOWS MAY 2016 AND HAVE NOT RECEIVED AN UPDATE THAT THE PARTS ARE AVAILABLE AT THIS TIME. THE NOTIFICATION OF NOT BEING ABLE TO HAVE PEOPLE RIDE IN THE FRONT SEAT IS NOT AN OPTION. THIS IS THE SECOND SUCH SAFETY ISSUE FROM MAZDA WHERE MY FAMILY'S SAFETY IS BEING COMPROMISED.

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 MAZDA 6. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V356000 (AIR BAGS); HOWEVER, THE PARTS TO DO THE REPAIR WERE UNAVAILABLE. THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE ISSUE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

THE DASHBOARD OF MY MAZDA 6 IS MELTING. IT'S A BIG STICKY MESS, LIKE PRIMER PAINT POURED ALL OVER IT. IF ANYTHING GETS ON IT, THERE IS NO REMOVING IT. IT CAUSES A VERY LARGE GLARE IN MY WINDSHIELD LIMITING MY VISIBILITY TO A POINT THAT IT IS DANGEROUS.

THERE ARE TWO RECALLS OPEN FOR MY VEHICLE AND FOR NONE THERE ARE NO PARTS AVAILABLE IN ANY DEALER. MY MAZDA 6 2010 HAS A PASSENGER AIR BAG INFLATOR RECALL AND A MELTER DASHBOARD RECALL. BOTH CREATE SAFETY HAZARDS FOR ME AND MY FAMILY YET THE MELTED DASHBOARD HAS BEEN AN ISSUE FOR OVER TWO YEARS AND I AM STILL AWAITING FROM MAZDA THE SECOND LETTER THEY PROMISED TO SEND ME TO TAKE THE VEHICLE TO REPAIR. THE RUBBER OR PLASTIC THAT IS MELTING IS CONVERTING INTO A GLUE LIKE SUBSTANCE THAT GETS ON MY CLOTH SEATS AND WORST OF ALL, IN MY WINDSHIELD WHICH CAUSES GLARE AND DISRUPTS MY VISION. I END UP HAVING TO REMOVE IT WITH OTHER MATERIAL THAT CAUSES MY WINDSHIELD TO BECOME STICKY. THE MATERIAL ENDS UP IN MY STEERING WHEEL RESULTING IN ADDITIONAL SAFETY ISSUES. I HAVE TRIED TO SELL THE CAR BUT NO ONE WILL BUY IT IN THAT CONDITION. I HAVE BEEN PATIENT FOR TWO YEARS BUT AT THIS POINT IT IS UNREASONABLE THE AMOUNT OF TIME THAT I HAD TO WAIT. I OWN ANOTHER MAZDA BUT FORTUNATELY IT HAS NOT HAD SIMILAR ISSUES. THE SITUATION IS ABUSIVE AND SHOULD HAVE BEEN RESOLVED ALREADY. IF MAZDA CANNOT FIX IT IN A TIMELY MANNER THEY SHOULD BE PROVIDING A REPLACEMENT VEHICLE TEMPORARILY DUE TO THE SAFETY CONCERNS. I JUST CONTACTED OCEAN MAZDA IN MIAMI AND THE SERVICE DEPT. CONFIRMS THAT THEY STILL DO NOT HAVE THE PARTS FOR BOTH RECALLS. IT IS INSULTING! I AM SENDING AN EMAIL FLASH TO 21,000 + SERVICE PROVIDERS THAT THE COMPANY THAT I WORK FOR HAS IN THEIR DATA BASE SO THAT THEY BECOME AWARE OF THE ISSUE AND STAY AWAY FROM MAZDA AND THEIR VEHICLES.

DASHBOARD IS MELTING AND WE COMPLAINED TO MAZDA LONG TIME. STILL NO RESPONSE FROM MAZDA. DASHBOARD IS VERY SHINY BECAUSE OF MELTING AND AFFECTING THE SIGHT. NOT ONLY THAT FAULTY DASHBOARD. PLEASE ACT. SEE THE BELOW LINKS. LOT OF PEOPLE ARE WAITING. HTTP://WWW.NBCMIAMI.COM/NEWS/LOCAL/DRIVERS-STILL-WAITING-ON-REPLACEMENTS-FOR-MELTING-DASHBOARDS-368240311.HTML

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 MAZDA 6. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH, THE FRONT AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED INTERMITTENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V356000 (AIR BAGS); HOWEVER, THE PART TO DO THE REPAIR WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 86,000. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

THE SEATBELT IS BEGINNING TO CHAFF AND UNRAVEL. I HAVE HAD MUCH OLDER AND USED VEHICLES BEFORE AND NEVER HAVE I SEEN A SEATBELT DO THIS. IT CONCERNS ME THAT IT WILL DETACH COMPLETELY IN A COLLISION IF IT GETS WORSE. THE VEHICLE IS NOT ABUSED AND ONLY HAS 90,000 MILES. THIS IS AN ONGOING ISSUE AND I AM AFRAID IT WILL ONLY GET WORSE.

THE DASHBOARD ON THE PASSENGER SIDE IS MELTING. I LIVE IN CENTRAL FLORIDA. I RECENTLY STARTED NOTICING A SLIGHT GLARE COMING FROM THE DASH AREA WHILE DRIVING. UPON A ROUTINE INTERIOR CLEANING I NOTICED THAT THE DASHBOARD AREA WAS STICKY/TACKY TO THE TOUCH. I USED A HIGH QUALITY INTERIOR CLEANER TO TEST A SMALL SPOT TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO TREAT IT. WHILE DOING THE TEST SPOT CLEANING THE DASH WAS LITERALLY RUBBING OFF ON THE RAG I WAS USING. THE SUBSEQUENT REMOVAL OF THE DASH MATERIAL LEFT THE TEST SPOT VERY REFLECTIVE. IN THE DECADES I HAVE BEEN WORKING ON AND REBUILDING CARS I HAVE NEVER COME ACROSS A DEFECT LIKE THIS. I PARK IN OPEN PARKING LOTS AND USE SUN SHADES INSIDE THE CAR TO HELP PROTECT THE INTERIOR. THE SUN SHADES ARE USED APPROXIMATELY 80% OF THE TIME DURING SUNNY WEATHER. I AM CURRENTLY AFRAID TO ATTEMPT TO CLEAN THE DASH FURTHER BECAUSE I FEAR THAT THE GLARE WOULD BE INCREASED AND CAUSE A FURTHER SAFETY HAZARD WHILE DRIVING.
