Browsing the complaints 2002 - 2006 for the Mazda Mpv, I think you will find many of the same complaints regarding the ignition coils. I have a 2003 Mpv and had 3 coils and all 6 plugs replaced in the spring at a cost of $700. I now have one or more coils failing again and am faced with a similar charge. This should definitely be a recall issue as it is an obvious design flaw.

Had to replace two ignition coils within 100 miles of each other, and at least one of the coils has been causing problems for a year. Also, it led to a catalytic converter malfunction.
