Hello i am a 2nd owner of a Mazda 2007 6. And the man i brought car from said it always did it to him as well.i would explain it as in stopping or speeding up the dashboard lights flicker or goes off, the engine gets real loud and car jerks and shakes and loses power check engine light comes on and AT.and Cars dyes in reverse a few times on me. Auto lots said that it is common and known for electrical problems and engine issues and pieces called camshafts position actuator and transmission range sensor and gears. And the man owned before me has replaced them multiple times. Its dangerous to be driving specially on interstate and car stalls or lose so much power that i only get about 20 miles an hour

I'M STUCK IN MY VEHICLE BECAUSE NO AMOUNT OF PRESSURE WILL RELEASE THE SWITCH LEVER. LUCKILY THIS WASN'T A TRAFFIC STOP BECAUSE THIS WOULD HAVE MADE THINGS COMPLICATED IF NOT DEADLY, NOT EVEN CONSIDERING THE HIGH POSSIBILITY THAT I WOULD NEED TO EXIT THE CAR IMMEDIATELY SHOULD I BE IN A ACCIDENT.

MAZDA 2007 MAZDA 6 WITH SEVERE CORROSION TO ENGINE SUBFRAME POSING A VERY SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN IF BREAKS WHILE DRIVING. CURRENT MAZDA 6 IN QUESTION HAD LESS THAN 100K MILES AND WAS SPOTTED BY AN OIL CHANGE TECHNICIAN. I'VE ASKED A COUPLE MECHANICS AND WAS INFORMED THE CAR WOULD BE A POSSIBLE DEATH TRAP TO MYSELF OR OTHERS IF NOT FIXED QUICKLY. ALL PARTIES ARE AMAZED AT AMOUNT OF CORROSION, INTERNET SEARCHES SUGGEST THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM AND ALREADY A RECALL IN PLACE FOR OTHER YEAR MAZDA 6'S.

TAKATA RECALL. FOR THE PAST YEAR THE AIRBAG LIGHT HAS BEEN COMING ON. IT SEEMS TO OCCUR AT WARMER TEMPERATURES AND GOES AWAY AND COLDER TEMPERATURES. THE CODE THAT COMES BACK IS B2234 AND THIS IS ASSOCIATED WITH THE DRIVER'S AIRBAG. I BELIEVE THIS HAS OCCURRED BECAUSE OF THE REPLACEMENT OF THE DRIVER'S SIDE AIRBAG REPLACEMENT THAT WAS DONE ON MY VEHICLE DUE TO THE TAKATA RECALL.

THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ON THE VEHICLE ARE KNOWN TO GO OUT BECAUSE OF A 'HARNESS ISSUE' AFTER RESEARCH NUMEROUS OTHER MAZDA OWNERS ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSSUE. THIS IS WHOLE STATIONARY, IN MOTION , CITY, HIGHWAY, DOESN'T MATTER. A QUICK REMEDY IS HITTING THE LIGHT AND IT'LL TURN BACK ON. I RECEIVED A TICKET ON A MILITARY BASE BECAUSE OF THIS. IM

TAKATA RECALL, OVER A YEAR AGO I DID HAVE A AIRBAG RECALL FOR MY INFLATOR , WHICH WAS FOR MY MAZDA 6 2007, I DID HAVE ONE OF THEM REPLACED, NOT SURE IF IT WAS THE PASSENGER SIDE OR THE DRIVER SIDE NOW, BUT ONLY ONE WAS REPLACED AT THE TIME BECAUSE THAT WAS ALL THAT WAS RECALLED AT THAT TIME, THE DEALER TOLD ME I WOULD HAVE TO WAIT FOR THE OTHER SIDE TO BE RECALL, SO WHAT IF I HAD A ACCIDENT IN THE MEANTIME? THE OTHER AIRBAG WOULDN'T WORK, BECAUSE IT HADN'T BEEN REPLACED? NOT VERY GOOD! THE DEALER DIDN'T SEEM TO THRILLED WITH THE WHOLE INFLATOR RECALL THING AND DIDN'T HAVE VERY GOOD THINGS TO SAY ABOUT IT, WHICH MADE ME WORRY ABOUT IF THE DARN THING WOULD WORK AT ALL! WELL NOT TOO LONG AFTER I GOT THE SECOND RECALL NOTE FOR THE OTHER SIDE INFLATOR TO BE FIXED I WAS IN A CAR ACCIDENT! GREAT! WELL, I WAS HIT FROM BEHIND AT 70MPH, THE CAR WAS HIT ON THE RIGHT SIDE AND I WAS THROWN INTO A SPIN, NOW, I WAS NOT HIT IN THE FRONT, NOR DID I ACTUALLY HIT DEAD ON IN THE FRONT OF ANYTHING! BUT MY WINDSHIELD WAS CRACKED. MY RIGHT SIDE AIRBAG DID DEPLOY AND SAVE ME FROM A MASSIVE HEAD INJURY! THE CAR DID AS IT WAS DESIGNED TO DO IN A BACKEND COLLISION, IT FOLDED UP, THE BACK END TOOK THE BLUNT OF THE 70MPH FORCE, AND SAVED ME! I WALKED OUT OF THE CAR! BUT THE CAR WAS TOTALED! MY ONLY QUESTION AND IT WAS A QUESTION OF A FEW OTHER PEOPLE... WAS WHY DID NOT THE FRONT END AIR BAD DEPLOY? WAS IT NOT SUPPOSED TO? BECAUSE IT HAD NOT BEEN IT HIT HARD ENOUGH? OR BECAUSE IT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED? NOT SURE? ALL I CAN SAY IS THAT THANK GOODNESS IN A WAY I GOT HIT FROM BEHIND AND NOT IN THE FRONT, BECAUSE I AM NOT SO SURE IF I COULD OF DEPENDED ON THE FRONT AIRBAGS WORKING CORRECTLY! SO MY ACCIDENT MAY HAVE HAD A TOTALLY DIFFERENT OUTCOME!
