THIS IS FOR A 2008.5 MAZDA3. THE ISSUE I AM REPORTING IS WITH A "SOFT PEDAL" CAUSED BY A MALFUNCTION IN THE ABS SYSTEM. THIS PROBLEM BEGAN WHEN DRIVING OVER A BUMP AND SIMULTANEOUSLY PRESSING DOWN ON THE BRAKES. THE BRAKES AND ABS SYSTEM ENGAGE AND CAR SLOWS DOWN. HOWEVER, AFTER THAT, THE PEDAL LOSES PRESSURE AND NEEDS TO BE PUSHED ALL THE WAY DOWN TO THE FLOOR IN ORDER TO GET THE CAR TO STOP. THIS ISSUE CAN BE FIXED BY ACTIVATING THE ABS SYSTEM AGAIN AND COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP. HOWEVER, WHEN BRAKING OVER A BUMP AGAIN THE ISSUE CONTINUES TO HAPPEN. IT LOOKS LIKE THIS ISSUE HAS RECENTLY STARTED TO BECOME WIDELY REPORTED FOR MAZDA3, MAZDA6, AND FORD FUSIONS. I AM SEEING THAT THERE IS AN INVESTIGATION OPENED IN DECEMBER 2016 FOR THE FORD FUSION AND THE MERCURY MILAN. I WOULD LIKE TO REPORT THAT THIS DEFECT IS ALSO EVIDENT IN MAZDA'S AS WELL. THERE IS A LOT OF CONFUSION AS TO WHAT IS CAUSING THIS PROBLEM AND IT SEEMS MOST PEOPLE GO AND REPLACE THEIR MASTER CYLINDER, CALIPERS, BRAKE PADS, ECT. IN ORDER TO FIX THE PROBLEM. THE PROBLEM LOOKS TO BE WITH THE HYDRAULIC'S IN THE ABS SYSTEM.

MY CARS BRAKE PEDAL SUDDENLY BECAME STIFF AND WOULD NOT STOP MY CAR. I HAD TO SWERVE TO PREVENT MYSELF FROM REAR ENDING THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME. AT THE NEXT STOP LIGHT I WAS EXTREMELY CAUTIOUS AND AFTER I FINALLY STOPPED, AS I WAITED FOR THE GREEN LIGHT THE CAR BEGAN IDLING ODDLY THEN IT STALLED. WAS ABLE TO START IT BACK UP. IT SEEMS TO BE SHIFTING A LITTLE ODDLY TOO. VERY SCARY DRIVING MY CAR. INCREDIBLY LUCKY WE WEREN'T INJURED NOR WAS ANYONE ELSE. WILL HAVE IT TOWED TO THE SHOP TO BE SAFE.

FAILURE TO START. WHEN I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY SAID THE ISSUE WAS THAT I NEEDED A NEW BREAK SWITCH AND I HAD CORRODED WIRES ON THE RIGHT SIDE. I HAVE A VIDEO OF MY ISSUE. HTTPS://YOUTU.BE/DFYWAGVKAVU THE DEALERSHIP SAID THAT THESE WERE KNOWN ISSUES BUT NO RECALLS HAVE BEEN ISSUED. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY AT TIME OF ISSUE. I MAY NEED TO HAVE THE DEALERSHIP RE PRINT MY INVOICE, I DIDN'T SEE IT IN MY FILES. MY VEHICLE IS A 2013 AND THIS ISSUE WAS IN 2016. WIRES SHOULD NOT BE CORRODED THIS QUICKLY, MY WARRENTY DID NOT COVER THE WIRES. THIS ISSUE SEEMS DANGEROUS TO ME.
