2009 MAZDA MAZDA6 Complaints

CAR GETS SELF ACCELERATED FROM FULL STOP RIGHT AFTER SHIFTING FROM DRIVE INTO REVERSE GEAR-AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE. I HAVE HAD THREE OCCURRENCES WITCH TRIGGER TO FILL THIS COMPLAINT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 MAZDA 6. WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH, THE LOOSE FUEL CAP WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 105,000.

TAKATA RECALL MY AIRBAGS STOPPED FUNCTIONING FOR NO REASON SINCE LAST YEAR. MY CAR IS A 2009 MODEL BUT ONLY HAS 45000 MILES ON IT AND NEVER BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT OR WRACK. MAYBE IT'S A GOOD THING THAT IT'S NOT WORKING BECAUSE MAZDA REFUSES TO INCLUDE THIS MODEL AS PART OF THE TAKATA RECALL, SO HOPEFULLY IT WILL NOT EXPLODE IN MY FACE. I CALLED MAZDA'S CUSTOMER SERVICE AND THEY GAVE ME THE RUN AROUND. TOLD ME TO GET A DIAGNOSTIC DONE, CALL THEM BACK AFTER THAT AND "MAYBE" THEY WILL COVER IT. WELL I LEFT NUMEROUS MESSAGES, THEY NEVER CALLED ME BACK. WHAT MAKES ME SCARED IS THAT THE MAZDA DEALERSHIP WHO DID THE DIAGNOSTIC REFUSED TO EXPLAIN WHAT EXACTLY IS GOING ON. THEY ACTED REALLY WEIRD AND RUDE WHEN I PRESSED FOR ANSWERS. ALL THEY TOLD ME THAT I HAVE TO PAY AROUND $500 TO REPLACE A PART BUT THAT WILL NOT GUARANTEE THAT MY AIRBAG WILL WORK. AND OF COURSE THAT'S AN EXTRA COST THAT WE WOULD HAVE TO PAY. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY THIS MODEL IS NOT AFFECTED BY THIS RECALL WHEN MANY OLDER AND NEWER MODELS HAVE ALREADY BEEN RECALLED?

OUR DASH IS MELTING AND IS PUTTING A GLARE ON THE FRONT WINDOW. IT HAS A AWFUL SMELL AND IS VERY STICKY. WE HAVE CALLED THE MAZDA COMPANY AND WE WERE TOLD THAT WE WILL HAVE TO PURCHASE A NEW DASH OUR SELF. THERE IS OTHER COMPLAINTS ONLINE FROM OTHERS WHO ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THE DASH IN THERE MAZDA

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 MAZDA 6. DURING HIGHER HUMIDITY TEMPERATURES, THE VEHICLE'S ALARM RANDOMLY ACTIVATED. THE CONTACT WAS UNABLE TO DETERMINE IF THIS ISSUE WOULD AFFECT THE AIR BAGS. THE DEALER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE SEVERAL TIMES AND WAS UNABLE TO PROVIDE A SPECIFIC DIAGNOSIS TO PROVIDE A PERMANENT REMEDY. THE DEALER INDICATED THAT THE VEHICLE RECEIVED A MANUFACTURER'S REPAIR FOR AN UNRELATED FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 30,000.

I BOUGHT A USED CAR WITH 2 DASHBOARD LIGHT TMPS & ENGINE THE DEALER GIVE ME EXTRA WARRANTY BUT NEVER BEEN REPAIR FURTHERMORE I FIND OUT BY MYSELF A RECALL FOR THE OUTER DOOR HANDLES AFTER THE DOOR OPEN WHILE I DRIVING IN THE EXPRESS WAY THIS HAPPENED TO MY YOUNGEST DAUGHTER; AND IN OTHER 2 INCIDENTS THE CAR DO NOT RESPOND WITH THE APPROPRIATE SPEED CAUSING ME A BIG CHANCE OF ACCIDENT AFTERWARDS IT IS HAPPENED AGAIN SO DUE TO OTHER SEVERAL MECHANIC PROBLEMS AND FOR SECURITY I HAVE TO DECIDED TO RETURN THE CAR NOW I HAVE NO MONEY NO CAR AND A BIG PROBLEM I AM HAVING HARDLY TIME TRIED TO SUMMIT MY CONCERNS BECAUSE I THINK THE DEALERS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR SALE SECURITY CARS BEFORE THE SALE BUT APPARENTLY THE LAWS ARE IN THE DEALERS SIDE AS A CONSUMER I HOPE MAYBE SOME ONE CAN SEE HOW THIS IRRESPONSIBLE DEALERS PLAY WITH THE CONSUMERS SAFETY. I PAY OVER $3,000 IN REPAIRS BY MY SELF AND I HAVE BEEN AROUND 90 DAYS WITH OUT CAR AND ALL THIS PROBLEMS IN A PERIOD OF TIME OF 26 MONTHS PLUS MY PAYMENTS TO THE DEALER THAT WAS $460,00 A MONTH THIS ISSUE START ON 12-6-13 TO 02-26-16 AFTER THE CAR NEED A NEW REPAIR AT COST OF $3,000 SO IN THE REALITY THIS COMPANY WAS NEGLIGENT WHEN THEY FAIL TO PROPERLY REPAIR THE CAR SINCE THE BEGINNING THEY JUST PRETEND TO FIXED BUT WASN'T . I WANT TO THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. *TR

THE FRONT CRADLE ASSEMBLY WAS RUSTED THROUGH AND BROKE WHILE I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY. MY MECHANIC SAID HE HAD NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE IT ON A CAR THIS NEW AND IT COULD HAVE CAUSED A VERY SERIOUS ACCIDENT. A MECHANIC AT THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I BOUGHT THE CAR SAID HE HAS NEVER HAD A PROBLEM LIKE THIS WITH A MAZDA 6.

BOTH HEADLIGHTS AT DIFFERENT TIMES HAVE GONE OUT, BEEN REPLACED AND GO OUT AGAIN WITHIN A FEW WEEKS OF REPLACING THE BULB. IF YOU BANG ON OR HIT THE HEADLIGHT IT MAY COME BACK ON. HAVE REPLACED THE DRIVERS SIDE 4 TIMES IN ONE YEAR. HITTING BUMPS IN THE ROAD MAY BRING THE BULB ON OR OFF ALSO.

RUBBER AROUND SMALL REAR WINDOW, NOT THE ONE THAT OPENS, HAS LOST MOST OF THE RUBBER. NOTICED THIS WHILE WASHING THE VEHICLE. THE REMAINING RUBBER DID NOT SEEM DRY ROTTED BUT IT PULLS OUT EASILY AND SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT IS ALREADY MISSING.

DASHBOARD IS MELTING AND IT CREATES A GLARE THAT REFLECTS ON THE WINDSHIELD MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO SEE AHEAD, ESPECIALLY ON SUNNY DAYS OR AT NIGHT. THOUGHT IT WAS AN ISOLATED CASE UNTIL DECIDED TO DO SOME RESEARCH ON IT, FINDING OUT IT IS HAPPENING TO PLENTY OF OTHER CONSUMERS.
