| On august 15, 2012 i stopped off at a gas station went to open driver side door and the door would not open from inside or outside handle. i then had to escape by climbing over the console to exit the passenger side door, good thing i'm a small girl and not a big guy trying to climb out. i have been without a door handle on my car for approximately 6 months, having to climb thru the window or passenger door. i finally take to mechanic to purchase a new handle at $100 and then charged another $150 for the labor to find out that this is a common problem with mazda and the real issue are the door latches. i now have to purchase a new door latch assembly at another $205 and another $100 in labor. this entire time i have been driving in an unsafe vehicle that if i would have been in an accident i would have sued mazda for. these are faulty latches they assemebled on the driver side doors unsafely locking us inside the vehicle. mazda needs to address this issue, correct this issue, and reimburse the owners that are paying for this faulty part. this has cost me out of pocket of $550. uncalled for!!! | |||

| Bought this car in 2010 ever since i had it nightmare, the automatic transmission would bang between 1st and 2nd gear at just normal speed, the tires would spin because of this. it also would slip out of gear in 3rd with shifting up sometimes. but just recently i found out that the intake tube for the car had a giant hole in it. so fixed that and its not really banging 1st and 2nd but slips a little bit. | |||

| The door locks on the vehicle failed. as a result, i am unable to enter the car from the drivers side door. furthermore, the remote control, key, interior latch, door handle will not open the door. as a result, i have to enter the car through the passenger side door and climb over the center console. this is a problem due to back surgery in which screws were placed in my lower back to stabilize to disk. because the door will not open, the door panel can not be removed and thus there is no access to the failed parts. no one seems to want to work on the problem. this is a definite problem in that an escape from the car would be time consuming and impossible should an accident occur. updated 07/05/11 *bf | |||
