EQUIPMENT ADAPTIVE/MOBILITY

1 complaint

Weld failure can cause the board to tip and dump the user on the ground. This is a hazard because this piece of equipment is design for disabled users who can't stand. User found the cracked weld before it broke completely. The board was sagging from horizontal. I notified the manufacturer, then had the part repaired by a local fabricator. I have pictures showing the failure.

STEERING

1 complaint

LOSS OF POWER STEERING AT RANDOM TIMES.SRS LIGHT COMES ON AND POWER STEERING LOCKS UP WHILE DRIVING. YOU HAVE TO PULL OVER AND TURN THE CAR OFF AND RESTART IT FOR IT TO WORK AGAIN. IT'S VERY SCARY NOT KNOWING WHEN THIS WILL RANDOMLY HAPPEN AS YOUR DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. IT COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. I SEE WHERE OLDER MODELS HAVE BEEN RECALLED FOR STEERING BUT NOT NEWER ONES.

MY VEHICLE WAS RECALL FOR STRUT FAILURE ON THE REAR LIFT GATE. THE RECALL REPAIR WAS COMPLETED MID 2017. RECENTLY THE STRUTS FAILED. THE CARR WAS PARKED IN MY DRIVEWAY WHEN I OPENED THE DOOR AND IT WOULDN'T STAY UP. MAZDA IS UNWILLING TO REPLACE THE DEFECTIVE PARTS (WITHOUT CHARGE) STATING THE PART IS OUT OF WARRANTY. I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE NEW AND IT CURRENTLY HAS 18,500 MILES IN THE ODOMETER. THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN GENTLY USED AND THIS PART SHOULD NOT HAVE FAILED SO QUICKLY. IT IS POOR PRACTICE TO REPLACE ONE DEFECTIVE PART WITH ANOTHER DEFECTIVE PART.
