Consumer Description

INFOTAINMENT SYSTEM RESTARTS 3 TO 5 TIMES, WHEN FIRST STARTING CAR, WHEN TEMPERATURES IN UNHEATED GARAGE ARE BELOW 50 DEGREES. I DRIVE FOUR TO EIGHT MILES, WITH HEATER ON, BEFORE IT STOPS RESTARTING. HAVE TAKEN TO DEALER 3 TIMES, WHILE UNDER WARRANTY. ALL THEY DO IS REBOOT IT. NOW THE CAR IS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY AND I REFUSE TO TAKE IT BACK, AND BE CHANGED FOR SOMETHING THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN FIXED THE FIRST TIME. THIS JUST MIGHT BE A DEAL BREAKER IN BUYING A MAZDA AS MY NEXT CAR. VERY ANNOYING.
