The exhaust from this car is horrible. Causing breathing issues.
I bought the 2009 Mazda cx7 in March of 2009. About mid August to early September 2009 the car would begin to jolt backwards (when put in reverse) or forward (in drive) when I would be ready to leave. Soon after it would stall to go up hills or to pick up speed when getting on the interstate. Later I would fuel the car toa "full tank" and the gasoline would spill all back out. I called and filed a complaint @ 2 different times at which the dealership could not find anything. Later calling me back stating that the O2 was messed up and fixed about (early February 2010 is when it was in the shop). I was without a vehicle for 1 1/2 weeks. After being looked at & fixed, I later pumped gasoline and it repeated the same incident, spilling about a gallon of fuel! I called again and said it was bad fuel? now, in April 2010 with the weather being warm & when I turn on the vehicle the exhaust pipes begin to smoke and you can find gunk inside the exhaust pipes. I will be soon be calling gorman mccraken in longview, TX for them to look at the vehicle again as it is repeating every problem once again.
