2015 Mazda CX-9 Complaints

WE PURCHASED A 2015 MAZDA CX9 WITH 30,000 MILES THREE YEARS AGO. AT THE START OF THE MONTH, THE CAR SUDDENLY OVERHEATED WHILE DRIVING AND THE ENGINE FAILED! THE MECHANIC SAID THE WATER PUMP FAILED, THE COOLANT MIXED WITH THE ENGINE OIL AND THE ENGINE WAS DONE. $$7944.41 ADDITIONALLY, THE OVERHEATED ENGINE CAUSED THE TRANSMISSION FLUID TO BURN TO A POINT THE THE TRANSMISSION FAILED. $$4864. THIS HAPPENED AT 65,000 MILES, 5,000 MILES PAST WARRANTY. AFTER RESEARCHING THE PROBLEM, WE LEARNED THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM ON MAZDAS THAT USE THE DURATECH ENGINE. THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF EXAMPLES AND A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT.

CODE P0016 CAME UP ONE DAY PRIOR TO ENGINE FAILURE. 30 MILES AFTER CHECK ENGINE LINE CAME UP LOSS POWER. UPON INSPECTION WATER PUMP FAILURE AT 85000 MILES. ENGINE MOST LIKELY TOASTED

I HAVE A PROBLEM WITH GETTING IN MY CAR AND FINDING SPIDERS AND SPIDER WEBS. I HAVE BEEN BITTEN BY THEM AND SO HAS MY FIANC. I GOT IN THE CAR YESTERDAY AND A WEB WAS COMING FROM THE AIR CONDITIONING VENT TO THE GEAR HANDLE. *TR

I'VE HAD MY MAZDA FOR ONLY 3 YEARS. I WAS DRIVING UP THE HILL TOWARDS MY HOUSE TO PARK MY CAR AND IT JUST QUIT WORKING. IT SHUT OFF AND NOW IT WILL NOT START. NOW I'M STUCK PAYING $400 A MONTH FOR A CAR THAT DOESN'T EVEN WORK. IT'S VERY DISAPPOINTING. I THINK THIS CAR SHOULD BE RECALLED.

WHILE DRIVING MY 2015 MAZDA CX-9 ON A VERY BUSY INTERSTATE, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT APPEARED ON THE DRIVER PANEL. I WAS TRAVELING WITH MY VERY YOUNG CHILDREN, AGES 4 AND 20 MONTHS. APPROXIMATELY 10 MILES LATER, I STARTED HEARING A RATTLING SOUND UNDER THE HOOD. SHORTLY THEREAFTER, MY CAR STALLED OUT AS I ENTERED MY SUBDIVISION. MY HUSBAND HAD TO PUSH THE CAR TO OUR DRIVEWAY. I CALLED AAA THAT SAME DAY AND HAD THE CAR TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP THAT SERVICES THE VEHICLE. I WAS TOLD THAT THE WATER PUMP NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AND WAS QUOTED A PRICE TO FIX THE ISSUE. LATER, I WAS TOLD THAT AFTER FURTHER INSPECTION BY THE DEALERSHIP THAT THE COOLANT MIXED WITH FLUIDS AND THE ENGINE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. I WAS QUOTED OVER $7000 TO COMPLETE THIS WORK. DURING THE COURSE OF MY RESEARCH, I HAVE LEARNED THAT A LOT OF MAZDA CUSTOMERS WHO HAVE THIS MODEL VEHICLE EXPERIENCE THIS ISSUE QUITE FREQUENTLY. I CALLED MAZDA CUSTOMER CARE AND WAS TOLD THAT MAZDA IS NOT ELECTING TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY...
