Consumer Description

THE MAZDA PART USED IN 2006 IS EXACTLY THE SAME PART USED IN 2007-2009 WHICH HAVE A NHTSA RECALL, SO WHY ISN'T THE 2006 COVERED? IT'S THE SAME PART WITH THE SAME INHERENT DEFECT. OUR POWER STEERING PUMP HAS FAILED WITH LESS THAN 75,000 MILES ON THE CAR. THE FAULT CAUSES THE POWER STEERING LIGHT TO COME ON AND THE PUMP STOPS WORKING MAKING THE STEERING VERY HEAVY, IT CAN HAPPEN WHILE DRIVING, AT A LIGHT, OR STATIONARY. THE PUMP IS ELECTRICAL SO SOMETIMES TURNING OFF THE CAR AND TURNING IT BACK ON "RESETS" THE SYSTEM AND IT WILL WORK FOR A LITTLE WHILE BEFORE FAILING AGAIN.
