    MY COMPLIANT IS WITH A DEALER I CONTACTED TO FIX A SAFETY RECALL ON MY VEHICLE. THE DEALER, RUSSLE MAZDA BALTIMORE MD, REQUIRED TWO SEPARATE VISITS, ONE FOR AN INSPECTION AND IF NEEDED ANOTHER TO MAKE THE REPAIRS ONCE PARTS CAME IN. WHY THEY COULDN'T ORDER THE PARTS AND DO EVERYTHING AT ONE TIME, I DON'T KNOW. TWO VISITS IS INCONVENIENT AND UNREASONABLE. I CALLED ANOTHER DEALER WHO ORDERED THE PARTS INSTANTLY FOR THEM TO BE REPLACED DURING ONE VISIT. THE RECALL NOTICE SAYS TO NOTIFY YOU IF THE DEALER DOES NOT REPAIR THE DEFECT WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME AND RUSSLE MAZDA WAS NOT REASONABLE. I DID LET THEM KNOW THIS AS WELL. THANKS. ALEXANDRA

    MAZDA RECALL STATE OF NJ. THE CAR WAS IN MOTION WHEN THE TIRE CAME LOOSE. MY HUSBAND HIT A SMALL POTHOLE. LUCKILY WE WERE ABLE TO GET THE CAR ON THE SIDE OF RIDE. DUE TO THE RECALL WE WERE NOT ABLE TO PUT THE CLAIM THROUGH OUR INSURANCE AND MAZDA IS TELLING ME I WON'T GET A REFUND FOR THE WORK DONE BECAUSE IT TOOK SO LONG TO BE REPAIRED. UNFORTUNATELY, WE DO NOT RECALL RECEIVING ANYTHING ABOUT THE RECALL. AFTER READING THE RECALL BASICALLY WHAT IT SAID COULD HAPPEN DID AND THE CAR NEEDED REPAIRS. I ATTACHED THE INVOICE AND RECALL FROM MAZDA'S WEBSITE.

    MY HUSBAND HAD JUST LEFT OUR HOME AND LUCKILY WERE STILL IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD WHEN OUR MAZDA CX9 STARTED TO STUTTER AND SHAKE AND BECOME UN-DRIVABLE. IT RODE VERY ROUGH. IT HAPPENED WITH ABSOLUTELY NO WARNING. WE TOOK IT TO THE LOCAL REPAIR SHOP AND WAS TOLD THAT THE CHECK ENGINE ERROR WAS P0351/PO352. THEY REPLACED THE COIL BUT THE PROBLEM PERSISTED AND WE STILL WERE UNABLE TO DRIVE THE CAR. WE THEN TOOK IT TO THE MAZDA DEALERSHIP WHICH THEN REPLACED THE PCM AND ANOTHER COIL. WE HAD TO WAIT SEVERAL WEEKS FOR THE PCM DUE TO "LIMITED AVAILABILITY"; WHICH TO ME, A CONSUMER MEANS ONE OF TWO THINGS - THE PCM SHOULD NOT FAIL OR THERE IS A SHORT SUPPLY OF PCM BECAUSE THERE ARE MANY FAILURES. I SPOKE WITH MAZDA AND THE CUSTOMER SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE RESEARCHED THE PROBLEM AND CALLED ME BACK TO EXPLAIN THAT THIS CURRENT SITUATION "DID NOT MEET THE FEDERAL PARAMETER OF THE REVIEW PROCESS AND THAT MAZDA WOULD NOT BE REPLACING THIS PART FOR US AND SHE ADDED "AT THIS TIME"...SEEMS SUSPICIOUS TO ME..."AT THIS TIME". WHAT DOES THAT MEAN? MAZDA'S WARRANTY IS 8 YEARS/96,000 MILES...THAT IS UNACCEPTABLE (OUR MILEAGE IS 116,000). WE WERE LUCKY WE WEREN'T DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED OR THE CAR WOULD HAVE JUST STOPPED RUNNING! OUR CAR HAD NO PREVIOUS ISSUES, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT DID NOT COME ON UNTIL THIS INCIDENT ON 11/16/2014. *TR
