Consumer Description

FOR THE LAST YEAR, THE CAR ALARM IN MY 2009 MAZDA 6 HAS BEEN GOING OFF SPORADICALLY BY ITSELF AT ALL HOURS OF THE DAY WHILE PARKED IN MY APARTMENT BUILDING PARKING LOT. THE DEALER DIAGNOSED THAT MY PASSENGER SIDE DOOR ACTUATOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. IT WAS, AND A FEW WEEKS LATER THE ALARM WENT OFF AGAIN AT 3:30 AM, WAKING UP ALL OF MY NEIGHBORS IN THE PROCESS. BROUGHT IT BACK TO THE DEALER AND NOW THEY SAY IT'S THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR ACTUATOR. THERE ARE SO MANY REPORTS ON THE INTERNET OF OTHER MAZDA OWNERS HAVING THIS SAME ISSUE AND THERE IS A BULLETIN OUT THERE FOR IT. WHY HAS BEEN THIS NOT BECOME A RECALL YET?
