I STARTED GETTING NOISE FROM THE ENGINE FOR LAST 6 MONTHS. BUT WHEN THE RPM IS GREATER THAN 2000. THE NOISE DECREASES, WHEN I TOOK TO THE DEALER SERVICE, THEY MENTIONED THAT TIMING CHAIN NEED TO BE REPLACED. MAZDA KNOWS ABOUT THE ISSUE AND ADMITS IT BUT NEVER PERFORMS A RECALL.

UPON PUTTING MY CAR IN REVERSE WITH MY FOOT ON THE BREAK, THE VEHICLE ACCELERATES TO THE POINT I HAVE TO SMASH THE BREAK TO THE FLOOR. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES WHILE PUTTING MY CAR IN DRIVE AND WHILE WAITING AT RED LIGHTS. I'VE ALMOST BEEN IN SEVERAL ACCIDENTS BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE. IT HAS BEEN HAPPENING SINCE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE NEW. THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM SO THEY DECIDED THE CAR WAS FINE.

I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK, TAKING A LEFT TURN, WHEN MY CAR JOLTED TO A STOP IN THE INTERSECTION. I WAS UNABLE TO MOVE MY CAR OUT OF THE INTERSECTION, BECAUSE THE WHEEL WASN'T ATTACHED PROPERLY ANYMORE. I CALLED FOR A TOW TRUCK, AND THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A LOCAL AUTO SHOP. AT THE AUTO SHOP THEY DISCOVERED THAT A PREVIOUSLY RECALLED PART (LOWER CONTROL ARM) HAD FAILED, WHICH IS WHAT CAUSED ALL OF THE DAMAGE. I WAS NOT AWARE OF THIS RECALL. I CALLED THE MAZDA DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE TO ASK FOR ADVICE. I WAS ADVISED TO HAVE THE VEHICLE REPAIRED AT MY LOCAL AUTO SHOP, AND THEN TO SEND THE INVOICE TO MAZDA TO BE REIMBURSED FOR THE RECALLED PART/LABOR. I SENT THE INVOICE TO MAZDA, AND THEY SAID THEY COULDN'T PROVIDE REIMBURSEMENT UNTIL THE RECALL WAS CLOSED, AND IN ORDER TO DO THIS I NEEDED TO HAVE EVERYTHING CHECKED OFF/RECALL CLOSED BY A MAZDA DEALERSHIP. I TOOK MY VEHICLE BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED IT FROM, THEY DID THE INSPECTION, AND CLOSED THE RECALL...

I AM VERY UNHAPPY WITH MY HEADLIGHTS ON MY MAZDA CX7 2010 OR SHOULD I SAY LACK OF HEADLIGHTS. I HAVE PUT 8 LIGHT BULBS IN THIS CAR AND THEY WERE THE EXPENSIVE ONES. THIS CAR IS A PIECE OF CRAP ALL THE WAY AROUND BUT THE HEADLIGHTS ARE REALLY BAD! ALSO THEY ARE SO CLOUDED OVER. I HAVE A HARD TIME DRIVING AT NIGHT AND NOW I JUST CAN'T BECAUSE I AM NOT GOING TO GET STOPPED AGAIN FOR HAVING A HEADLIGHT OUT! I ONLY DRIVE DURING THE DAY. I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT THEY DO NOT HAVE A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM, WHEN I SEE SO MANY COMPLAINTS ON THE SAME THING. THIS IS SUCH A STRESS ER FOR ME. I WISH THERE WAS SOMEONE OUT THERE THAT COULD HELP US IN THIS SITUATION.
