I AM UNDER THE IMPRESSION THAT MY VEHICLE UNDER SAFETY RECALL 14V344 SHOULD BE INCLUDED IN THE NATIONAL RECALL. WHEN I CHECK THE VIN LOOK UP, IT STATES ZERO RECALLS. *TR

THE CLUTCH PEDAL ASSEMBLY HAS 3 CRACKS IN IT WHICH ALLOWED THE ASSEMBLY TO PUSH THROUGH THE BULKHEAD TO THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT THE CLUTCH DID NOT WORK PROPERLY ALMOST CAUSING AN ACCIDENT AS I WAS UNABLE TO CHANGE GEAR.THIS IS A DANGEROUS DEFECT WHICH SHOULD NOT HAVE OCCURED.I THINK A RECALL SHOULD BE ISSSUED FOR THIS PART TO BE REPLACED AND REPAIRED AND ALSO OTHER DAMAGE CAUSED BY THI DEFECT. *TR

IT HAS A VERY ROUGH SHIFT FROM FIRST TO SECOND GEAR. IT DOESN'T GRIND OR CLUNK, IT'S JUST A VIOLENT SHIFT ALMOST LIKE ITS SLIPPING. *TR

MY CAR WAS MAKING A CLICKING SOUND AND I COULD FELL IT IN THE STEERING WHEEL WHEN I WAS TURNING. I TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC THINKING IT WAS A BALL JOINT. HE SAID I NEEDED TO REPLACE THE CONTROL ARM IT WAS RUSTED AND READY TO FALL APART. SO I DID AND IT WAS EXPENSIVE. THE OTHER SIDE WASN'T IN BAD SHAPE AT THAT TIME BUT WAS STARTING TO DETERIORATE. WELL NOW THAT ONE SIDE IS STRONGER THAN THE OTHER IT HAS DETERIORATED FAST AND ALSO NEEDS TO BE REPLACED ASAP. I JUST WANTED TO COMPLAIN BECAUSE I SAW THE RECALL FOR THE TRIBUTE AND I SEEM TO HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM AS WELL. *TR

I WAS DRIVING WITH MY 7 YEAR OLD IN MY 2005 MAZDA 6 WHEN I NOTICED THE CAR WAS ACCELERATING ON ITS OWN JUST A LITTLE BIT. I DIDN'T THINK MUCH OF IT AT THE TIME. ABOUT 2 MINUTES LATER THE RPMS WENT UP AND DOWN 3 TIMES( 1000 RPMS EACH TIME). IMMEDIATELY AFTER THAT, MY BRAKES STOPPED WORKING WHILE I WAS GOING ABOUT 35 MPH. I HAD THE BRAKE PEDAL FLOORED AND IT BARELY STOPPED IN TIME. I MANAGED TO STOP WITH MY EMERGENCY BRAKE AND PUT ON MY HAZARD LIGHTS FOR A FEW MINUTES WHILE THE CAR WAS STILL RUNNING. I HAD TO GET OUT OF THE ROAD SO I ATTEMPTED TO REVERSE VERY SLOWLY AND THE BRAKES WERE SUDDENLY WORKING. I PULLED THE CAR IN A PARKING LOT WITH NO BRAKE PROBLEMS AND GOT IT TOWED TO A SHOP. THE SHOP IS TELLING ME THEY ARE NOT FINDING ANY PROBLEMS BUT I DON'T FEEL SAFE IN THE CAR WITHOUT AN ANSWER! IM WORRIED IT MAY HAPPEN AGAIN AND CAUSE AN ACCIDENT NEXT TIME. *TR
