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.
I am trying to get the airbags replaced but I cannot find a place who will service our car. We are trying to avoid driving it until the airbag problem is fixed.
Takata recall, my car suddenly stopped on the side, of the 101 freeway off the West lake village exit going South, and would not turn on. I had my car towed to the Mazda dealership after finding out of the recall on the fuel pump and air bags on the Mazda website. After 3 days at the dealership and being charged 3 hours of $115 hour they were not able to repair my car or replace the recall. They suggested for me to buy a new engine that would cost me $7000
The dash is all cracked around the passenger dash side. Is exactly where the air bad sits 4 large cracks all the way around it..also the driver seat right side lower lumbar is shift up and down...poor manufacturing
The dashboard that covers the passenger airbag has been cracking in the outline of the airbag since prior to 10/4/2012. Mazda said they would not cover the replacement. I've attached my 10/4/2012 request for an estimate of repair, but I did not get it repaired. I believe they should be paying for this defect. I've also attached a picture of the dashboard as of today. I am afraid it is going to burst open and injure or kill someone.
The plastic casing on my drivers side dashboard that encases the air bag is pushing it's way through the dashboard. It is the exact shape of a rectangle which the dealership says is the plastic casing. I feel this is a defect in the car and also dangerous but I was told that this is not a warranty issue.
