Consumer Description
A have a new 2021 Mazda 3 Hatchback with 3,500 miles. As I was driving and approaching a traffic light to stop, my car shut down completely while in traffic. I turned on my hazard lights, put the car in the park position, and restarted the vehicle. As I proceed with driving, when I made a right turn onto the blvd, a minute after turning when I came to another stop, the vehicle shut down again. I called Romano Mazda in Syracuse, NY. They set me up with an appointment for the following week and gave me a rental. They kept my vehicle for 3 days. Per the technician, there were no codes found or pending codes. said they contacted the Mazda tech line and was told there was no history of the fault within the ODR date and released my vehicle back to me. My vehicle only has 3,500 miles on it. ITs a huge safety hazard. I transport my mother who is 93 years of age. I don't feel confident driving it. especially on the highways. In 2019 over 262,000 Mazdas, including the Mazda 3 hatchback were recalled for problems with vehicles stalling out. Sound like the same issue with the 2021's
