Example complaints

“The airbag deflated when I was involved in a car accident september 25, 2015. I suffered a fractured sternum from the airbag and severely multiple fractures in right ankle. This car was totaled. The accident was not my fault, the other car moved into my lane and I struck it head on.”
NHTSA complaint #11040415, filed 2017-10, 10,000 miles“The low beam light of my Mazda 6 is extremely dim, mostly on the rainy day. People sitting next to me always asked me did I actually turn on the light? I saw the Mazda forum online, people other than me always complained the light too. It really affect the safety problem.”
NHTSA complaint #10704662, filed 2015-04“When is the government going to take the responsibility to readdress plastic headlights that cannot withstand normal use, cloud up, and create a safety hazard. My Mazda no longer has normal light output due to inferior lens. This is a vital safety part of a car that should last substantially longer than the 7 years I have owned the car. Yes, I have tried chemicals. This is a safety issue; not an exterior trim problem. Cost to replace is unreasonable. It is almost like driving with no lights at all at this point!”
