This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
Fuel smell in & outside of vehicle after fuel fill, being a retired Master Technician I decided to investigate this and after removing the the fuel tank access door under the rear seat I was shocked to see that on an 8 year old vehicle the fuel sender retainer is completely rusted out. An overfill, an aggressive maneuver or small collision could prove disastrous with this condition pending! I have just ordered a replacement since I intend to repair this myself and that is only of the tank itself is not compromised when I proceed to remove the rusted out screws as well. Also after further investigation I find this is nothing new to Mazda and actually had this same condition in previous years but I assume chose not to prevent it from happening in future models. I will be attaching a photo of it.
Gas overflow from tank due to pump auto-shutoff not activating. Fueling vehicle, set gas nozzle to automatic, was not holding the handle or trying to top off. Was watching the pump closely because of similar issue with a 2016 mazda3 at a different. Before I could stop the fill, gas overfilled the tank and spilled onto the ground.
The contact owns a 2016 Mazda 6. while driving approximately 50 mph, the vehicle stalled without warning. The vehicle eventually restarted, but the failure recurred. The vehicle was towed to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the fuel pump and brake lines were faulty and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired; however, the failure persisted after the engine system malfunction warning indicator illuminated. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer, but the failure was unable to be determined. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 7,000.
Mazda has cramped vent duct, speaker, ac duct and front display on to of the dashboard at the driver side. Reflection from all these make the driving very difficult. I have talk to the Mazda customer service and my dealer. They are not interested in listening to my complaint. There message is they can not do anything about it. I have bought the car and its done. Its a safety hazard and accident is bound to happen. We have to take action before something happens
