This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
Had 30000 mile service done prior to a 1000 mile one way vacation trip. After arriving at our destination washed car at coin car wash. Drove car for about 10 minutes and engine began surging, transmission would not move from second gear, and vehicle speed would not exceed 20 mph. Exited roadway and parked vehicle overnight. At engine startup vehicle ran fine but with engine light on. Drove 60 miles and vehicle suffered complete shutdown on freeway. Vehicle coasted to a safe stop and called Mazda roadside. Vehicle would not even turn over. Vehicle towed to dealership, ignition coil and PCM were replaced. Dealer approved vehicle for 1000 mile return trip. After only 4 hours of driving engine light came on again. Exited interstate, parked vehicle and called Mazda roadside. Vehicle currently under repair. This was two identical failures within 200 miles of use.
