I went to check on safercar. Gov since I received a letter saying Mazda would be replacing the dash due to glare condition potential (2015) to find updated status and also for air bag. The air bag issue is still incomplete for over 7 months. By VIN look-up, I find two additional recalls for door latch and fuel tank in which I was unaware. Date on this complaint reflects first contact from Mazda. Also, 4 interior items broken, including a cracked rear-view mirror.

5 Other Fuel System Tank Assembly problem of the 2009 Mazda MAZDA6

Failure Date: 10/01/2014

There have been problems with other Mazda cars that got recalled due to a possible faulty fuel shut-off valve that could allow gasoline to enter the fuel tank emission system. If enough fuel gets into the system, it can cause the engine to stall. However, this recall did not cover my 2009 Mazda 6 and I had the same problem. Door lock actuator has failed! the alarm on my Mazda goes off at random periods of time. Sometimes its once a week and sometimes is 5 times a day or night. I have reviewed several internet forums and it appears that there are a lot of people with the same problem but they have not created a complaint on this website. The remedies that they have found to have the dealer replace a door actuator that is faulty. This door actuator locks the doors and if when it fails to properly lock the door it will intermittently sound the alarm. The alarm is not so much the concern as much as the door lock actuator. It if fails to lock it creates a safety hazard for people as they are driving down the road the door could accidentally be opened. Children could open the door and fall out of the car as it is failing. Please look into this issue as it is a safety concern. This has been happening for at least the past 4-5 years.

7 Other Fuel System Tank Assembly problem of the 2010 Mazda MAZDA6

Failure Date: 04/15/2013

Vehicle was repaired as part of NHTSA campaign number: 11v134000 on 21 July 2011. However, vehicle's fuel tank cracked in April 2013 and had to be replaced at owner's expense. After smelling gasoline after fill up and noticing a puddle of gasoline in driveway in April 2013, owner had vehicle towed to Mazda dealer for repair. Dealer replaced tank on 15 April 2013. Over the last year and several attempts, Mazda has since declined to reimburse owner for repair and reprogram ecu per NHTSA campaign number: 14v114000. Recall from July 2011 was supposed to eliminate the possibly of a cracked fuel tank, but it didn't. Owner has pictures of cracked tank and dealer work orders from July 2011 and April 2013 and can provide if needed. Owner worried that if the ecu isn't reprogrammed, the tank will crack again.

8 Other Fuel System Tank Assembly problem of the 2005 Mazda MAZDA6

Failure Date: 04/25/2007

Leased 2005 Mazda 6 in July 2005. September 2005: took in for service for check engine light. Dealership replaced a purge canister valve. While driving vehicle after repairs were made, I heard a high-pitched whirring noise from the engine and returned the vehicle to the dealership for service. Tech determined noise was coming from transmission. Trans. Was replaced two times; noise did not go away. Tech then determined it was the fuel pump. That was replaced but noise remained. Tech then suspected the fuel lines were vibrating, added a clip to prevent rubbing and noise disappeared. That took 28 days. Day after vehicle left dealership, fuel tank leaked fuel upon starting the vehicle. Dealership determined that a cap had not been tightened. Cap was tightened and car was returned but smelled awful. Dealership shampooed interior. June 2006: while driving, tachometer suddenly bounced and vehicle did not respond to accelerator being pressed. After turning car off and restarting it, car worked fine, but was taken to dealership. Tech replaced throttle body. April 2007: vehicle stalled while waiting at traffic light. Attempts to restart failed. Vehicle was towed to dealership. Tech determined that a fuel pump fuse had become disconnected. Fuse was replaced. One week later, fuel tank leaked upon starting the vehicle. Vehicle was towed to dealership again. Fuel pump assembly had to be replaced. I do not have vehicle back yet.
