Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“There is already a prior recall on lower control arms for earlier made Mazda rx-8s. Why are the later models also not included? Is it because the model I have there were not as many made, so not as many left on the road? You can hear a dull pop when turning the corner time. Family member is a mechanic, he advised what this was, and to check for recall . . .well there is one, just for 2004-2008 models, why doesn't the recall include 2009 & 2010 also?”
