I have had an ongoing issue since I purchased my Mazda 6 2011, if I slow down or stop for a traffic light and then try to accelerate the gas pedal is to the floor and the car doesn't move, then out of nowhere it will accelerate. I was told the voltage in the gas pedal censor and the censor in the engine were not the same voltage, both were replaced but I still continue to have problems and the dealership cannot find out what the problem is. My car has been back in to Mazda 3 times but no solution, as this is extremely dangerous in heavy traffic I wish someone could figure this out before I get into a serious accident.
Fuel overflowed during a routine fuel fill up at a national gas chain in the philadelphia area. Gas continued to spew out uncontrollably until the pump was manually shut off by hand.
Car is new, less than one month since purchase. Issue has occurred with every fill-up. When filling up with gas, as soon as or near tank is full, gas spews out of tank. Took to Mazda dealer on 11/19/2011 and they cannot find what the cause is. Seems like a highly dangerous problem to have gas shooting from the tank. Also, it could be a faulty valve that may malfunction in the case of a rollover, creating a highly combustible situation.
