Open the full vehicle complaint log (all categories)THERE ARE 2 RECALLS ISSUED ON MY VEHICLE. ONE IS THE AIRBAGS AND THE OTHER IS THE LOWER ARM CONTROL. I HAVE CONTACTED MAZDA 4 TIMES AND THEY TELL ME THEY DO NOT HAVE PARTS AND DON'T HAVE A TIME FRAME THAT I CAN COME IN AND GET THESE ISSUES RESOLVED. BOTH OF THESE RECALLS ARE A SAFETY CONCERN FOR MYSELF AND MY CHILDREN.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2012 MAZDA CX-7. WHILE ADJUSTING THE HEAT AND DRIVING 20 MPH, THE VEHICLE VEERED INADVERTENTLY AND CRASHED INTO A CONCRETE WALL. THE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED INJURIES TO THE LOWER BACK, NECK, AND CHEST AREA. MEDICAL ATTENTION WAS REQUIRED. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE DEALER STATED THAT THE SUSPENSION SYSTEM WAS DAMAGED. THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED AND TOWED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED, BUT WOULD NOT SEND A REPRESENTATIVE TO INSPECT THE VEHICLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,000.
TAKATA RECALL - HOW LONG DOES MAZDA HAVE TO REPAIR THIS AS THEY KEEP SAYING THAT PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE? I LIVE IN FLORIDA WHERE HUMIDITY IS VERY HIGH. NOT BEING ABLE TO USE THE PASSENGER SEAT IS NOT IDEAL. WHAT RECALL DO I HAVE AND WHAT CAN I DO IF ITS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE THIS CAR? THERE IS ALSO ANOTHER RECALL FOR THE STEERING ON MY VEHICLE AND PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE PER THE MAZDA WEBSITE. WHAT RECALL DO I HAVE ON THIS? DOESN'T SOUND LIKE CAR IS VERY SAFE WITH BOTH OF THESE RECALLS.
