Consumer Description

DRIVERS INSIDE DOOR HANDLE WILL NOT OPEN DOOR. A CRITICAL PART OF THE MECHANISM IS CHEAP PLASTIC. MAZDA SHOULD RECALL THIS PART BECAUSE THE PROBLEM HAS BEEN REPORTED BY EVERY TRIBUTE OWNER THAT I KNOW AND FREQUENTLY APPEARS IN ON-LINE COMPLAINT FORUMS. I HAVE BEEN THROUGH TWO HANDLES SINCE OWING THE VEHICLE. *TR
