Wiper problem #1

Passenger side dashboard is getting a sticky surface on top. The top layer almost seems like it is melting. It is just starting to get sticky and it is just on top. The stickiness has just started in the last 2 weeks. The sticky surface is causing a glare and is affecting the visibility when driving. Further, the dashboard cracked all the way down after having the air bag replaced due to the recall. No pressure/damage/hits has occurred on the dashboard by consumer and yet it cracked all the way down in January 2018.

Wiper problem #2

The low beam headlight bulbs go out after less than a year. Sometimes they will start working after hitting the headlight assembly on the outside of the car.

Wiper problem #3

I was driving down the hwy and my sunglasses holder fell open was in the way of my rearview mirror and when I went to close it popped off and flew at me spring and all. My Mazda 6 is a 2011 and there are no recalls for this problem, but a lot of reports regarding this problem. I believe Mazda should have to pay for me to install a new one. And there should be a recall on them. Very hazardous when you’re driving down the road and the springs flies off and lands on me the driver let alone the whole door falling to my feet and I’m driving down the road.
