Four problems related to equipment have been reported for the 2005 Mazda RX8. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
Takata recall making a complaint about not doing recall in a timely manor.
Good morning, I have received numerous letters informing me that I have a recall on my Mazda. It is the "fuel leak at fuel pump rings and fuel pump discharge pipe 1017e" recall. I have been receiving them for the past year or so. Every time I check the NHTSA website or the Mazdarecallinfo. Com website, it says "remedy not yet available". I am concerned with my safety at this point and am wondering just why there is no "remedy" yet available? it seems to be an important recall, in my opinion.
I was driving down the highway, coming to a stop from 65 mph speed because of traffic ahead, and as soon as I press the clutch pedal it snaps. The clutch pedal now moves freely making the vehicle completely inoperable. Had to call a friend to tow my car with her truck. And even though I was able to safely stop by pulling the car in neutral and stopping on the shoulder, things could have been a lot worse if I had to make an emergency stop or accelerate.
I'm going in today for the third time because my ac continues to make a noise when the fan is blowing. I cant even begin to list all of the problems I've had with this car. Just to name a few I'm on my second engine, new brakes, battery and tires before 40k miles and I was told by three different shops that something is really wrong with the brakes but Mazda claims other wise. I've had a two new radiators and my driver window went out along with everything else from the visor falling off during the hot summer because it just melted. How does a "sun visor" melt. I've had the shifting paddles replaced because they just didn't work and I don't even really use them, the gas cap lock broke and I had to pry it open since the eject no longer worked. . . I think you get the point and I didn't even mention some of the bi items. I've never had so many problems with a car in my life. I cant wait until I can sell it or maybe ill get lucky and it will implode. It wouldn't surprise me at this point. This car is junk!!! I'm going back to Honda.
