2007 MAZDA MAZDA3 Electronic Stability Control Esc Problems

I HAD JUST GOT MY GRANDSON AND WAS TRAVELING DOWN I75 IN GA I WAS GOING TO MERGE INTO THE NEXT LANE FROM THE FAST LANE, I LOOKED IN MY REAR VIEW MIRROR AND SIDE MIRROR AND THEN BACK IN FRONT, I HAD PLENTY OF TIME AND ROOM, AS I STARTED TO MERGE IT WAS LIKE I COULD HARDLY TURN THE WHEEL AND LIKE I WAS BREAKING INSTEAD OF SPENDING UP TO GET INTO THE OTHER LANE, IT HAPPENED SO FAST I HAD NO IDEA WHAT HAD TAKEN PLACE BECAUSE I NEVER SHOULD HAVE HIT THE CAR, SUV. IN FRONT OF ME, I HIT HIM WITH MY LEFT FRONT HEADLIGHT, BUT IF MY CAR HAD BEEN RUNNING AS IT SHOULD HAVE I WOULD HAVE BEEN OUT OF THE LANE AND PASSING HIM I WAS STUNNED, AND I DIDN'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT ANY OF THE RECALLS ON MY CAR, AND I...

I HAD A SERIOUS ACCIDENT BECAUSE MY STEERING LOCKED UP SO I COULDN'T STEER MY STEERING WHEEL . I ROLLED MY CAR AND NEARLY WAS KILLED

AS I PLACED THE MANUAL 5-DOOR SEDAN MODEL INTO REVERSE GEAR AND SLOWLY INCHED OUT OF THE PARKING SPACE, THE POWER TO THE RADIO AND AIR CONDITIONING DIED AND A THE POWER STEERING WHEEL LIGHT CAME ON THE DASHBOARD. AS I PLACED THE CAR INTO FIRST GEAR AND BEGAN TO MOVE THE VEHICLE FORWARD, GREAT DIFFICULTY WAS FELT TRYING TO GET THE VEHICLE TO TURN AND THE AC AND RADIO KEPT TURNING OFF. AS I ATTEMPTED TO ENTER ONTO THE MAIN STREET, THE VEHICLE ONCE AGAIN HAD GREAT DIFFICULTY TURNING AND ALMOST CREATED AN ACCIDENT. THIS INABILITY TO TURN THE WHEEL AND THE ELECTRICAL GOING OUT, RESULTED IN ME EVENTUALLY PULLING TO THE CURB AND TURNING THE VEHICLE OFF. AFTER GIVING THE VEHICLE A FEW MINUTES, I RESTARTED IT AND HAD NO ISSUES UNTIL I WAS PULLING INTO MY APARTMENT COMPLEX ABOUT 15 MINUTES AWAY WHERE THE SAME POWER STEERING...

THE STEERING WHEEL SEEMS TO HAVE LOST ALL POWER STEERING CAPABILITIES, VERY SCARY! MAKES IT EXTREMELY DANGEROUS WHEN ATTEMPTING TURNS! NOTICED IT LUCKILY AS I WAS PULLING OUT OF A LARGE PARKING LOT. TRYING TO REMEDY THE SITUATION SO I CAN USE A CAR THAT ISN'T AN ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN.

ANY TIME I PROCEED TO MAKE A TURN, MY WHEEL STIFFENS. EVERY LIGHT IN MY DASHBOARD LIGHTS UP. MY RADIO CUTS OFF AND CAR STALLS. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS. THERE IS A RECALL FOR THIS EXACT PROBLEM WITH THIS EXACT MODEL OF CAR BUT MY VIN IS NOT COVERED.

WHILE DRIVING, I SLOWED DOWN AND WHEN TURNING, MY WHEEL LOCKED UP AND I HAD NO CONTROL OVER MY TURN. MY ABS LIGHT FLASHED, ALONG WITH THE TRACTION LIGHT. THE RADIO TURNED OFF AND THEN CAME BACK ON. THE WHEEL UNLOCKED AND LUCKILY I WAS NOT TURNING WHERE SOMEONE WAS STOPPED.

I HAVE BEEN HAVING ISSUES WITH THIS VEHICLE EVER SINCE I PURCHASED IT FROM A DEALERSHIP IN WOODBRIDGE, VA. THE CAR'S GEARS DOES NOT SHIFT CORRECTLY AND THE ENGINE CONTINUOUSLY STALLS. IF I'M AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT AND THE LIGHT SWITCHES FROM RED TO GREEN THE VEHICLE JUMPS AS IF IT'S GOING TO CUT OFF. MY AT LIGHT ALSO CAME ON AND MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON AND OFF. EVERY TIME THE VEHICLE'S ENGINE LIGHT IS CHECKED, IT'S BECAUSE OF "THE THERMOSTAT" WHICH I'VE SEEN MANY COMPLAINTS FROM OWNERS OF THE SAME TYPE OF VEHICLE. ALTHOUGH, THE ENGINE CODE IS COMING UP AS AN ISSUE WITH THE THERMOSTAT, THERE'S ACTUALLY NEVER AN ISSUE. I SEARCHED MY VIN AND ITS STATING THERE ARE NO OPEN RECALLS FOR MY VEHICLE, BUT I'M HAVING THE SAME ISSUES AS THE OPEN RECALLS FOR THIS PARTICULAR MAKE AND MODEL FOR 2007. I BOUGHT THE...
