Due possibly to poor alignment, incorrect coil springs, all four tires worn dangerously and had to be replaced. Mazda issued "bulletins" on these problems to dealer but did not notify owners. There was also a "bulletin" on a brake problem, not reported to owner. (dot number: Fd9L tiresize: 65R15)
The new vehicle was pulling to the left, and was corrected by alignment repair. However, the problem reoccured the consumer brought the vehicle to the dealer four times, but the problem could not be corrected.
The camber bolt on the 2000 Mazda MPV needs to be adjusted this has caused my driver side tire to wear down unevenly and become flat. This had not happened while driving, but if it we were driving this very well could have caused a blow out. Both Mazda & yokohama would not take responsibility for the wear on the tire with only 14,777 miles.
At 30-35 mph /in rainstorm, drove over puddle about 2-3 inches deep, and vehicle on front passenger's side and rear wheel came off the ground, tearing steering wheel out of driver's hand, almost causing loss of control.
