MAZDA Complaints

FOLLOWING A ROUTINE OIL CHANGE WITH ONLY 26,000 MI IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT MY FRONT BRAKE ROTORS ARE SEVERELY CORRODED AND NEED TO BE REPLACED.THE SERVICE AT LIBERTY MAZDA WAKEFIELD,MA INSIST IT IS DANGEROUS TO KEEP DRIVING MY VEHICLE DUE TO POSSIBLE BRAKE FAILURE. I BELIEVE THIS IS A MANUFACTURING DEFECT,OR AS THE MECHANIC STATED AN INFERIOR STEEL PRODUCT USED TO MANUFACTURE THE ROTORS.

TAKATA RECALL: RECALL FOR MY VEHICLE WAS ANNOUNCED BY MAZDA IN MAY 2016 AND AS OF SEPTEMBER 14, 2016 MAZDA STILL HAS NOT PROVIDED A RESOLUTION, OTHER THAN NOT ALLOW PASSENGERS TO RIDE IN THE FRONT SEAT, I GUESS SO ONLY THE DRIVER WOULD BE KILLED DURING AN ACCIDENT. I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE NEW IN 2009 AND IT HAS BEEN LOCATED IN FLORIDA THE ENTIRE TIME WHICH IS THE HIGH RISK AREA. IT WOULD SEEM THAT MAZDA SHOULD HAVE A SOLUTION AVAILABLE BY NOW TO REPLACE THESE AIRBAGS OR PROVIDE AN ALTERNATIVE FOR REPLACING THE VEHICLE BEFORE MORE PEOPLE ARE INJURED.

TAKATA RECALL - THE CONCERN REGARDING THESE AIRBAGS WAS FIRST RAISED IN 2014, I WAS NOTIFIED BY MAZDA IN JANUARY OF 2016 THAT MY VEHICLE IN INVOLVED, WHEN WILL MY CAR BE RENDERED SAFE? THE DEALER HAS NOT BEEN ABLE TO PROVIDE ME WITH ANY UPDATES ON THIS RECALL. I AM VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THIS POTENTIAL DANGER. PLEASE HELP.

DRIVING FROM WORK TODAY ON A HIGHWAY BEHIND AN ELECTRIC TRUCK THAT STOPPED ABRUPTLY, I APPLIED MY BREAKS KIND OF QUICKLY AND AFTER STOPPING AND TAKING OFF AGAIN WHEN TRYING TO APPLY BRAKES TO SLOW THE PEDDLE WOULD BE REALLY HARD TO PRESS AND IT FELT LIKE THE PEDDLE WAS PUSHING UP AGAINST YOU. THERE IS A HISSING NOISE WHEN BRAKE IS APPLIED AND IF YOU PRESS THE BRAKE ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR THERE IS A SQUEALING NOISE. THE HISSING NOISE IS INSIDE THE CARE AND SOUNDS TO BE COMING FROM AROUND THE BRAKE PEDDLE AREA. THE CAR CAN NOT BE DROVE AT THIS TIME BECAUSE WHEN IN MOVEMENT THE BRAKE IS REALLY HARD TO PRESS AND IT TAKES VERY LONG DISTANCES TO GET STOPPED. I CAN'T PUT MY CHILDREN IN THIS CAR TO GO ANYPLACE!

2016 CX-5 IS LESS THAN A YEAR OLD AND ALREADY ON ITS THIRD WINDSHIELD. THE FILED COMPLAINT LIST FOR THIS CAR IS JUST ONE CRACKED WINDSHIELD AFTER ANOTHER AND DEFINITELY NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED FURTHER.
