| Engine will shut off without warning at any speed. i researched the issue and found that there are a large number of complaints regarding the exact same symptoms with the 2003-2005 mazda 6. mazda even released a service bulletin: 01-016/06 in 2006 regarding a bad throttle body with aa, ab, or ba markings. sure enough after removing the throttle body, mine had the aa markings. from the amount of online complaints and the fact that a service bulletin was released, this is not an isolated issue. this is a huge safety concern and should be a safety recall. to top it off, currently mazda has an issue with replacement throttle body's that will cause the car to jerk and stall at anytime. they have admitted that the current new stock of throttle bodies will not work with my vehicle. this will cause people to keep driving with a bad throttle body since there is no replacement. | |||

| Engine failed while driving because of a problem with the throttle body. there was no warning. found that mazda has known about this problem since may 2006 in fact there is a service bulletin that completely identifies this situation down to the part number code on the defective part. bulletin number 01-016/06. this happened on a major freeway at 70 mph, it was just luck that i was able to get off of the highway without a major incident. my car was under warranty when this bulletin came out why was it not replaced or recalled.. i have seen recalls for many things with less safety impact. i was charge $473 for the repair. *tr | |||

| 1)nov. '04....12 hours after we purchased the vehicle, were called back to have mazda replace gas tank due to recall.mazda misplaced my new gas tank. took approx.4 days to get my brand new car back in my possession. 2)05/01/04: a.complained of moaning sound from steering wheel/engine. b) breaks squeaking loudly. mazdaproblem not duplicated 3)8-19-05 a. clutch shudders when going from 0-1 & 1-2 gear (manual trans.) b. moaning sound from steering/engine right front area. mazda: unable to duplicate 3) car makes moaning sound from steering/right front engine while turning. mazda: unable to duplicate problem listings go on with my same complaints. each time, mazda states problem not duplicated. now, warranty is up, guess what: mazda says: we've found your problem! yeah, we found it really quickly, is the reason that i'm calling you so soon. you need a new clutch which will fix your ongoing clutch complaint of 3 years. oh, and we'll need to order a new engine mount, and take apart the engine to take a hard look at the transmission. you seems to have some problems from your clutch which affected the transmission. your warranty is up, and we would have fixed the problem had we noticed it before 3,000 miles. but, no need to worry.....we'll put you in a rental car.... *tr | |||
