Consumer Description

WHEN I TURN OFF THE ENGINE, THE ELECTRONICS (LIGHTS, RADIO) IN THE CAR STAY ON AND THE DOORS WON'T LOCK IF I WANTED TO LEAVE THE VEHICLE. I'VE FOUND THAT, WHILE IN PARK, I NEED TO PULL THE GEARSHIFT HARD TOWARDS THE STEERING WHEEL FOR THE CAR TO "REGISTER" THAT I'M ACTUALLY IN PARK. I'VE READ ONLINE THAT MAZDA RECOGNIZES THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM, BUT WON'T DO A RECALL ON IT. THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR WELL OVER A YEAR NOW. I'M ADDING AN ARBITRARY DATE BELOW.
