MAZDA Complaints

GLASS CRACKED FROM TOP, MIDDLE PORTION OF WINDSHIELD GLASS, NO APPARENT SIGN OF ROCK CHIP. SPREAD IMMEDIATELY INTO VIEWING AREA. CONCERN FOR OVERALL SAFETY AND INTEGRITY OF GLASS. ADVISED BY DEALER TO CONTACT INSURANCE, ADVISED BY INSURANCE IT'S A $500 DEDUCTIBLE. ONLINE RESEARCH HAS LED ME TO BELIEVE THAT THIS IS A MANUFACTURER DEFECT AS IT HAS HIGH NUMBERS OF COMPLAINTS.

MY DASHBOARD IS MELTING. MY CAR ISN'T EVEN FIVE YEARS OLD AND THE DASHBOARD HAS BASICALLY MELTED TO A POINT WHERE I HAVE TO REPLACE IT. THERE ARE ISSUES ALL OVER ABOUT THIS ON CERTAIN VEHICLES AND AS FAR AS I UNDERSTAND MAZDA WILL NOT PLACE A RECALL, BUT SAYS I HAVE TO PAY $1500 TO FIX IT BECAUSE THE GLARE OF THE MELTING REFLECTS OFF MY WINDSHIELD WHEN I DRIVE WHICH CAUSES A HAZARD.

MY DASHBOARD IS MELTING AS IT GETS HOTTER HERE, I HAVE FOUND OTHERS WITH THIS ISSUE ON LINE AND THERE ARE CLASS ACTION SUITS BUT I REALLY JUST WANT MINE REPLACED BY MAZDA BEFORE I EVER BUY OUT NEXT ONE, IF THEY DO NOT FIX IT WE WILL BUY ANOTHER MAKERS VEHICLE FOR OUR NEXT CAR. IT'S REALLY STICKY AND NASTY AND WILL GLARE IN THE SUNSHINE .

MY MAZDA 2005, HAS TOTALLY RUSTED OUT ON THE PASSENGER BACK WHEEL WELL. THE SUSPENSION IS AFFECTED AS WELL. THE REPAIRS ARE GOING TO BE VERY COSTLY AND I FOUND OUT THAT THE 01-04 MODELS HAVE DONE THE SAME AND THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THE SAME EXACT ISSUE. MAZDA NEEDS TO EXTEND THE RECALL TO INCLUDE THE 05 MODEL AS WELL. I AM ALSO FILING A REPORT WITH MAZDA.
