THE TCM FAILED ON THE CAR AND IT IS A VERY COMMON THING. THE DESIGN SET THE MODULE IN A LOCATION THAT OVERHEATS AND MALFUNCTIONS WHEN CONNECTION IS LOST WITH MECHANISMS THAT WARP UNDER HEAT, THE COST TO REPAIR AT THE DEALERSHIP WAS EXTREMELY EXPENSIVE

I HAVE GONE TO MULTIPLE MECHANICS WITH NO HELP. MY VEHICLE SURGES OR REVS ANY TIME THE AC IS ON TO THE POINT THAT THE VEHICLE LUNGES FORWARD EVEN WHEN MY FOOT IS ON THE BRAKE. THIS OCCURS IN NEUTRAL, DRIVE AND PARK. IT SPECIFICALLY OCCURS WHEN I AM SLOWING DOWN, STOPPING, OR COASTING AT A LOW SPEED. IT ALSO JERKS WHEN IN DRIVE BUT NOT APPLYING THE GAS, THEN REVS WITH NO WARNING. NO CHECK ENGINE OR OTHER LIGHTS ARE COMING ON. I HAVE BEEN ON SEVERAL MAZDA FORUMS AND THIS SEEMS TO BE A RECURRING ISSUE WTH THIS VEHICLE. IT HAS CAUSED ME TO HIT A WALL (I WAS SLOWING DOWN, COMING INTO A PARKING SPACE) AND MY NEIGHBORS VEHICLE AS I WAS WAITING TO TURN RIGHT OUT OF OUR CONDOS.

AFTER REPEATEDLY GOING TO VARIOUS MECHANICS TO GET A DIAGNOSIS THROUGHOUT THE YEARS, THEY WERE ALL UNSUCCESSFUL TO FIND ANY REPORT THROUGH THE VEHICLE'S COMPUTER. HOWEVER, MY CAR'S ENGINE IS CONSTANTLY REVVED UP EVEN WHEN APPLYING THE BRAKES AN SLOWING DOWN CAUSING IT TO JERK FORWARD. THIS OCCURS SUDDENLY AND RANDOMLY WHEN I AM GOING AT SPEEDS BELOW 20 MPH INCLUDING WHILE ON IDLE. IF I NEITHER APPLY THE BRAKES NOR THE ACCELERATOR, IT WILL STILL DRIVE FORWARD AT 3 MPH IN RHYTHMIC JERKY WAVES. WE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE LOCAL MAZDA DEALER FOR A KEY REPLACEMENT WHEN WE FIRST PURCHASED IT, AND I BELIEVE WE REPORTED THE PROBLEM THERE FIRST, BUT AFTER THE RIDICULOUS SERVICE WE GOT, I NEVER WANTED…

THERE IS A CURRENT RECALL ON MY VEHICLE INVOLVING THE REAR HATCH. IT MAY DROP RANDOMLY AND WITH 2 CHILDREN I FIND IT EXTREMELY IRRESPONSIBLE THAT THIS HAS NOT BEEN RESOLVED SINCE 9/2016. I DO NOT KNOW IF THERE IS A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF TIME MANUFACTURERS HAVE TO FIX A RECALL BUT, I FIND THIS UNACCEPTABLE.

I HAVE HAD AN ONGOING ISSUE WITH THE POWER STEERING LIGHT COMING ON IN MY CAR. THERE WERE TIMES THAT I HAVE HAD MY CAR PARKED OVERNIGHT, GOT UP THE NEXT MORNING TO LEAVE FOR WORK, THE LIGHT WAS STILL ON FROM THE PREVIOUS AFTERNOON. THE LIGHT HAS COME ON WHILE I HAVE DRIVEN ON THE HIGHWAY GOING 55 MPH FOR NO APPARENT REASON...ON A STRAIGHT-AWAY. THE PAST TWO DAYS IT HAS GONE OFF AND ON AT LEAST THREE TIMES, AGAIN FOR NO GOOD REASON. THE VERY FIRST TIME I NOTICED THE LIGHT WAS A HOT, SUMMER DAY, BUT THE CAR HAD BEEN RUNNING WITH THE AIR ON. THINKING SOMETHING OVERHEATED, I SHUT THE CAR OFF AND HAD TO WAIT 45 MINUTES BEFORE THE LIGHT WOULD GO OFF. NOW EVEN WITH WEATHER GETTING COOLER AND THE…
