| 2010 | POWER TRAIN | AS I WAS DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE AT 70MPH I SUDDENLY FELT A TUG AND THE SPEEDOMETER BEGAN GOING DOWN AND I WAS NOT ABLE TO ACCELERATE. THE WRENCH CAME ON. I PULLED OVER AND WAITED TO BE TOWED. I JUST CALLED MAZDA, THE THROTTLE BODY NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. I WAS TOLD THIS IS NOT PART OF THE POWER TRAIN WARRANTY. THE BIGGEST ISSUE, THE PART IS ON BACK ORDER FOR A MONTH. THIS INDICATES TO ME THERE ARE NUMEROUS ISSUES WITH THE THROTTLE BODY. I AM NOW DOWN A CAR FOR A MONTH, UNACCEPTABLE. IN RESEARCHING ONLINE I HAVE FOUND OTHERS TO HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. I PLAN TO CONTACT MAZDA AS I FEEL THIS IS SOMETHING THEY CAN PAY TO REPLACE. *TR |
