NOT SURE WHAT PROBLEM IS, BUT IT SEEMED THAT ONCE THE ENGINE WAS WARM THE SQUEAKING WAS GONE. I DID CHECK THE POWER STEERING FLUID, AND IT WAS LOW, SO POWER STEERING FLUID WAS ADDED. ALSO ADDED BRAKE FLUID DUE TO IT WAS ALSO LOW. I HEARD PROBLEM SLIGHTLY THE DAY AFTER A LITTLE. HOPEFULLY THE POWER STEERING FLUID WILL SOLVE THE PROBLEM. IF IT PERSISTS, I WILL CALL THE DEALERSHIP. PLEASE ADVISE IF THERE HAS BEEN ANY OTHER COMPLAINTS ON THIS. MY CAR CURRENTLY HAS OVER 50,000 MILES, AND THIS IS THE FIRST SOUNDS I HAVE HEARD. *TR

  I HAD TAKEN MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP THREE TIMES IN 2012 BECAUSE THE AIRBAG ICON HAD COME ON. THE 3RD TIME I HAD IT IN WAS IN MARCH OF 2012 JUST BEFORE THE WARRANTY EXPIRED. AT NO TIME WERE THEY ABLE TO FIND THE PROBLEM. WITH THE MORE RECENT RECALL BECAUSE OF AIRBAG PROBLEMS, I ASKED IF I COULD BRING MY CAR IN AGAIN TO BE CHECKED AS THE AIRBAG ICON HAD REMAINED ON MOST OF THE TIME. I TOOK IT IN ON 10/09/14. THE PROBLEM WAS FOUND, BUT MAZDA WOULD NOT COVER THE COST OF OVER $1000.00. I AM ON A FIXED INCOME AND NOT ABLE TO PAY FOR THE REPAIR. MAZDA'S SOLUTION WAS TO REMOVE OR DISENGAGE MY AIRBAG. (I DON'T KNOW WHICH) I WAS TOLD NOT TO GET INTO AN ACCIDENT AS MY AIRBAG WOULD NOT DEPLOY. I DO NOT FEEL THIS IS A FAIR OR SAFE SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM. CAN YOU HELP? *JS

  Hello i am a 2nd owner of a Mazda 2007 6.

Auto lots said that it is common and known for electrical problems and engine issues and pieces called camshafts position actuator and transmission range sensor and gears. And the man owned before me has replaced them multiple times. Its dangerous to be driving specially on interstate and car stalls or lose so much power that i only get about 20 miles an hour

  WHILE ON VACATION, 6/23/07, WITH APPROX. 400 MI ON MY 2007 MAZDA 6, I INITIALLY NOTICED SOME STEAM COMING FROM THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT AND A DISTINCT ODOR. SHORTLY THEREAFTER, MY CAR WOULD NOT SHIFT OUT OF FIRST GEAR AND MY AT INDICATOR LIGHT APPEARED. I IMMEDIATELY PULLED THE VEHICLE OVER AND NOTICED A POOL OF TRANSMISSION FLUID LEAKING UNDER THE VEHICLE. I THEN CONTACTED THE DEALER. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE NEAREST MAZDA DEALER. I WAS INFORMED THAT THE VEHICLE'S TRANSMISSION HAD A DEFECTIVE SEAL THAT LED TO THE TORQUE CONVERTER AND THEREFORE, LEAKED ALL TRANSMISSION FLUID. THE CAR WOULD NOW NEED A NEW TRANSMISSION INSTALLED. AT APPROXIMATELY 3000 MI ON THE VEHICLE, I NOTICED A HIGH PITCHED WHINE WHEN ACCELERATING AND DECELERATING. IN ADDITION, THERE SEEMED TO BE A LAG IN SHIFTING. I CONTACTED THE DEALER TO INVESTIGATE THE PROBLEM AND BROUGHT THE VEHICLE IN ON 9/6/07. I WAS NOTIFIED THAT 2 COMPONENTS IN THE DIFFERENTIAL FAILED; A DIFFERENTIAL SEAL AND A SOLENOID VALVE. MAZDA INSTALLED THE TWO COMPONENTS. THE SEAL WAS REPAIRED BUT THE SOLENOID VALVE INSTALL WAS UNSUCCESSFUL. THE DEALER CONTACTED THE MANUFACTURER AND WAS INSTRUCTED TO INSTALL ANOTHER NEW TRANSMISSION. AS OF 9/18/07, THE DEALER SHOULD HAVE COMPLETED THE INSTALL TODAY AND WILL CONTACT ME WITH THE RESULTS. *JB
