Complaint
2008
FUEL SYSTEM, DIESEL
1. THERE WAS NO WARNING TO THIS FAILURE, I WAS ON A MOTORWAY (U.K) I CHECK MY OIL LEVELS EVERY SINGLE WEEK 2. I HAD AN ENGINE OVER-RUN AND COULD ONLY BE STOPPED BY SWITCHING THE ENGINE OFF, THE REV COUNTER HIT MAXIMUM AND A HUGE CLOUD OF WHITE SMOKE WAS LEFT BEHIND ME. CONSEQUENCES ARE NOW I AM LEFT WITHOUT A CAR AND I COULD HAVE DIED BECAUSE I WAS APPROACHING A ROUNDABOUT 700 YARDS AWAY AND SWERVED BETWEEN 2 LANES OF MOVING TRAFFIC TO FORCE A STOP ON A LAY-BY. 3. NOTHING WAS DONE, MAZDA ARE BLAMING ME FOR THE INCIDENT EVEN AFTER I HAD MY OIL CHECKED AND RESULTS SHOWN A 62% DIESEL OIL CONTAMINATION, THEY BLAME THE DPF (DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER) FOR THIS OVER-RUN AS I AM NOT DOING ENOUGH "LONG JOURNEY" MILES. WHICH I WAS, NO WARNING LIGHTS APPEARED BEFORE OR AFTER THE INCIDENT AND THE OIL LEVELS ARE DRAMATICALLY ABOVE THE FULL MARK. NO FAULT CODES ARE SHOWN ON MAZDA COMPUTER. MY CAR IS SITTING USELESS ON MY DRIVE AS WE ARE ALL TO SCARED TO DRIVE IT. *TR

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
WE BOUGHT OUR NEW 2003 MAZDA 6 IN JULY 2003. FEW MONTHS LATER MY WIFE NOTED A LOUD SCRAPING/GRINDING NOISE FROM THE FRONT END WHEN MAKING SHARP SLOW LEFT OR RIGHT TURNS WITH BRAKES APPLIED. THE NOISE ALSO OCCURRED WHEN PULLING INTO A PARKING SPACE. THIS HAPPENED 3-4 TIMES WEEKLY. FINALLY , WE BROUGHT THE CAR INTO THE DEALERSHIP AT LEAST 3 TIMES FOR THE PROBLEM, BUT THE NOISE COULD NOT BE REPRODUCED CONSISTENTLY. A ENGINE BELT WAS REPLACED IN 12/03, BUT THE PROBLEM PERSISTED. DURING THE LAST VISIT IN 2/14/04 TO THE DEALER, WE WERE TOLD THAT THE BRAKES COULD BE AT FAULT AND MAZDA IS LOOKING FOR A SOLUTION. *JB
