See attached document for complaint.

Emergency brake calipers not working. Same problem as previous years recall. Calipers stuck.

This car is not safe and Mazda has known for years. The door sash molding has caused me permanent brain damage. At age 43, I had to retire/disability due to defects Mazda knew of and just inform consumer of in 2018? I was making right hand turn, legally. Someone in lane next to me decided to turn and hit side of car. I as not injure on impact. It was the three week had to drive damage car while wait for lady's insurance to pay. The metal piece that in sspa5 status stuck out and hit head on it multiple times. My neurologist was dumfounded and could not figure out where my various horrible symptoms came from. The accident occur March 2017,Mazda has known for years, check Mazda forum. Had this fix 3 times and is falling apart on passenger side again. As far as electrical, I will be at red light or stopped and car turn off for no reason, the bluetooth which need for directions goes in and out. It is safety concern for me due to confusion symptom of brain damage. I just received in febuary 2018 safety recall 1217f on brake issue. It state Mazda concerned about safety, but again knew of issue and hat sent recall. The car has many serious manufacture defect that have caused my life to be ruin, and as I research, bodily harm to other people. Mazda, even when shown medical record and note from neurologist will not release me from my lease unless I get another Mazda, which I will never do. I am on restricted driving and need to feel safe in the car I drive. I absolutely do not. Can only imagine what safety recall will come next month. If Mazda cared about humans, these recalls would have been sent minute issue was acknowledged. The very least Mazda can do is release me from lease, but they wont. Please get me out of this deadly machine so I am not afraid of car. Thank you. I don't know how to add documents,another symptom of brain damage, memory loss,.

This car has had many random computer problems starting with transmission locking in low gear until you stop the car and restart. Car shuts off displaying automatic stop break got very hard and steering very hard. My daughter had an accident last week 2/2/17 due to vehicle loss of power hard breaking and steering. Called Mazda with no response.

After making a left turn I depressed the brakes to stop for a red traffic signal. The brake pedal was excessively hard to operate and failed to stop the car. To avoid an accident, I had to use the parking break. At the same time the engine rpm increased dramatically. I shifted the transmission to neutral which brought the rpm to normal velocity. After this incident the car performed normally. I have experienced this problem three times,the last time was on April 4,2016. I noticed the failure occurs at slow speed,around 15 to 25 miles/hour. I went twice to berge Mazda in mesa,az. Unfortunately they were unable to duplicate the break failure during test. This predicament is still unresolved and could be the cause of a deadly accident. Some help in this matter would be appreciated.

Was following a car and came up to a stop light. I depressed brake pedal and felt some resistance but car would not stop. Felt like the brakes were being bled off by perhaps computer control. I switched into a right hand turn lane that was clear, car still not stopping. Shifted into neutral, and engine started to rev up perhaps to 4500 rpm or so, then engine went back to idle on its own. The car had stopped and I put it in park. We then turned right and cautiously proceeded home, without a further problem. Took to dealer and requested the memory be analyzed, they said they could not read the black box at the dealership. It showed no faults. Test drive was uneventful. I again requested the black box be analyzed as the brakes appeared to be bleeding off. They said they would let me know if Mazda needed anything more. My background includes auto mechanic, tow truck driver, car dealership, technician, software engineer, and analyst.
