Consumer Description

WHEN THE CAR STANDS FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS IT MAKES A GRINDING SOUND WITHIN SECONDS AFTER START. I HAVE SPENT THREE YEARS TRYING TO GET IT FIXED. IT HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP MANY TIMES. FIRST ITS THIS THEN THAT BUT REMAINS UNFIXED. ON THE INTERNET YOU CAN SEE COMPLAINTS STARTING WITH 2009. I TRIED TO TALK TO MAZDA BUT THEY TELL ME ITS A DEALER PROBLEM. I WOULDN'T TRY TO TALK TO THEM IF THE DEALER TOOK CARE OF IT. I WAS TOLD BY A SERVICE MANAGER ITS IN MOST OF THE 6 MODEL. THE MAZDA FIXES HAVEN'T WORKED. IF I COULD AFFORD A LAWSUIT I WOULD HAVE BY NOW. I DON'T WANT TO BE ONE OF THOSE DEAD SO THAT'S WHAT IT WAS. I WOULD GET RID OF THE CAR BUT I STILL OWE TO MUCH. CAR IS STATIONARY. THEY BLAME THE AIR CONDITIONER LAST. MY CAR HAS ONLY 7000 MILES ON IT.
