Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 35-40 MPH THE ENGINE STALLED, THE PANEL LIGHTS TO INCLUDE THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND I HAD DIFFICULTY BRAKING AND STEERING MY VEHICLE. AFTER MUCH DIFFICULTY I WAS ABLE TO STOP THE VEHICLE OFF THE ROAD. I THEN WAS UNABLE TO TURN THE VEHICLE OFF IN ORDER TO RESTART IT AGAIN. I CALLED THE DEALER AND SENT MAZDA AN EMAIL AND BOTH ORGANIZATIONS SAID THEY WERE NOT AWARE OF ANYONE ELSE HAVING THIS PROBLEM AND IF I TOOK IT IN THE DEALER MIGHT BE ABLE TO FIND OUT WHAT HAPPENED BUT THERE IS NO GUARANTEE. THIS IS THE 2ND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE BECAUSE IT HAPPENS WITHOUT NOTICE AND I AM AFRAID OF SOMEONE HITTING ME FROM BEHIND WHEN IT STALLS.
