MAZDA 2007 CX-9 FWD TOURING MODEL DOES NOT OPERATE IN SNOW CAUSING SAFETY CONCERN. IF TIRES START TO SPIN THE TCS SYSTEM SHUTS OFF THE FUEL INJECTORS IF THE CAR IS GOING OVER I THINK 9 MPH. YOU CAN SHUT OFF THE TCS BUT IT AUTOMATICALLY ENGAGES OVER 9 MPH. WHAT THIS MEANS IS THAT IF YOU ARE ON A ROAD EVEN WITH A SMALL AMOUNT OF SNOW THE CAR COMES TO A HALT CAUSING A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN. I HAVE BEEN CLOSE TO BEING HIT MULTIPLE TIMES. THERE WERE TWO INSTANCES IN 1 INCH OF SNOW WHERE I HAD TO PARK THE CAR BECAUSE I COULD NOT GET UP MINOR HILLS. MOST CARS HAVE THE ABILITY TO SHUT OFF THE TCS SYSTEM BUT THE MAZDA SYSTEM AUTOMATICALLY ENGAGES AS I SAID ABOVE. PLEASE HELP. *TR

THERE IS A SYSTEMIC EVAP SYSTEM ISSUE WHERE THERE IS A LEAK THAT EITHER SHOWS THAT THE GAS CAP IS OFF OR THE CHECK ENGINE CODE FOR LARGE EVAP LEAK. MESSAGE BOARD TRAFFIC SHOWS THIS AS A PROBLEM ACROSS MULTIPLE YEAR MODELS AND MAKES IN THE MAZDA CX LINE, ESPECIALLY THE CX-9. EVERYONE, INCLUDING MYSELF, REPORTS THE SAME ISSUE: LIGHT COMES ON, AND THEN REPLACE GAS CAP. LIGHT COMES BACK ON AND THEN IT IS MULTIPLE TRIPS TO THE DEALER FOR THEM TO FIND WHERE THE EVAP LEAK IS.

THE PTU TRANSFER CASE IS DEFECTIVE AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED, AND WILL COST ALMOST AS MUCH AS THE CAR IS WORTH. AFTER SOME RESEARCH, THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM DUE TO THE DESIGN THAT MAZDA HAS REFUSED TO ACKNOWLEDGE AND RECALL FOR MANY YEARS NOW. COMMON PROBLEMS ARE EXPLOSION OF THE UNIT AND TOXIC FUMES AND LOCKING UP OF THE POWER TRAIN. PLEASE DO YOUR JOB AND TAKE ACTION.

BACK IN 2011 (MY MAZDA CX-9 WAS ONLY 4 YO), I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE TURNPIKE AT 65 MPH WHEN MY CAR BEGAN TO STUTTER, IT WOULD NOT ACCELERATE AND IT CAME TO AN IDLE. THANKFULLY I WAS NEAR THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD SO I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER. SOUTH MOTORS MAZDA DEALERSHIP STATED THE COMPUTER (PCM) WAS FRIED. IT WAS REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY. CURRENT DAY: 2016. MY CAR BEGAN HAVING THE SAME SYMPTOMS LAST WEEK WHEN DRIVING 15 MPH IN A RESIDENTIAL AREA. MY CAR CURRENTLY HAS APPROXIMATELY 99,500 MILES. HAD MY CAR TOWED TO DEALERSHIP. OCEAN MAZDA STATED THE PCM AND 3 COILS ARE FRIED AGAIN. UPON READING CONSUMER REVIEWS ON 2007 MAZDA CX-9, IT SEEMS THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE. I AM LIVID THAT THIS ISSUE HAS NOT BEEN ADDRESSED AS A RECALL AS THERE IS OBVIOUSLY A DEFECT IN EITHER THE COILS MISFIRING OR MAZDA'S PCMS ARE DEFECTIVE. I WILL BE DISCUSSING THIS ISSUE WITH MY DEALERSHIP TODAY IN ATTEMPT TO NOT PAY OVER $1900 PARTS AND LABOR AS QUOTED BY OCEAN MAZDA.

I HAVE ONLY HAD THIS CAR FOR ONE YEAR. I BOUGHT IT USED AND HAVE HAD THE "SAME" PROBLEM NOW "3" TIMES AND SINCE I HAVE NOT HAD IT FIXED AT A "MAZDA" DEALERSHIP BECAUSE I AM SORRY I DO NOT HAVE THE $$$ FOR THIS AND I BROUGHT IT TO MY OWN MECHANIC, MAZDA WILL NOT STAND BY THIS. THE IGNITION COILS HAVE ALL BEEN REPLACED NOW AS WELL AS THE PCM AND NOW I AM TOLD IT NEEDS THE PCM TO BE REPLACED AGAIN. THERE ARE "NUMEROUS" COMPLAINTS ON THE INTERNET FOR THIS EXACT SAME ISSUE AND MOST HAVE TAKEN IT TO MAZDA DEALERSHIPS AND STILL HAVE NO RESOLUTION TO THIS PROBLEM. THE LAST COIL ACTUALLY MELTED AND COULD HAVE STARTED A FIRE SO I AM RUNNING WITH 5 COILS NOW INSTEAD OF 6 UNTIL I CAN FIND OUT HOW TO RECTIFY THIS ONGOING PROBLEM! I JUST PUT 4 NEW TIRES ON THE VEHICLE AND HAVE SPENT OVER $1000 ALREADY AND CAN'T AFFORD TO SPEND MUCH MORE ON THIS VEHICLE. MAZDA NEEDS TO STAND BY THIS PROBLEM!

MY COMPLIANT IS WITH A DEALER I CONTACTED TO FIX A SAFETY RECALL ON MY VEHICLE. THE DEALER, RUSSLE MAZDA BALTIMORE MD, REQUIRED TWO SEPARATE VISITS, ONE FOR AN INSPECTION AND IF NEEDED ANOTHER TO MAKE THE REPAIRS ONCE PARTS CAME IN. WHY THEY COULDN'T ORDER THE PARTS AND DO EVERYTHING AT ONE TIME, I DON'T KNOW. TWO VISITS IS INCONVENIENT AND UNREASONABLE. I CALLED ANOTHER DEALER WHO ORDERED THE PARTS INSTANTLY FOR THEM TO BE REPLACED DURING ONE VISIT. THE RECALL NOTICE SAYS TO NOTIFY YOU IF THE DEALER DOES NOT REPAIR THE DEFECT WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME AND RUSSLE MAZDA WAS NOT REASONABLE. I DID LET THEM KNOW THIS AS WELL. THANKS. ALEXANDRA

WAS DRIVING MY CAR WITH CHILDREN IN IT WHEN THE WHEEL FELL OFF AND AXEL CRACKED. IT CAUSED FRONT END DAMAGE I COULDN'T GET OUT OF THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR BECAUSE IT WOULDN'T OPEN. HAD TO PAY TO GET ALL OF THAT FIXED. I JUST RECEIVE RECALL 8515G. MY ISSUE WITH THIS IS THAT THE RECALL DOES NOT CORRECT THE ISSUE. THE REASON FOR THE RECALL IS THAT WATER GET LEAK INTO THE SUSPENSION AND CAUSE CORROSION. REPLACING JUST THE CONTROL ARMS AND BALL JOINTS DOES NOT PREVENT THIS FROM HAPPENING AGAIN. WATER CAN STILL LEAK INTO THE SUSPENSION AND THE NEW PARTS COULD COULD CORRODE, BECOME LOOSE AND CAUSE THE SAME THING TO HAPPEN AGAIN BUT THIS TIME IT COULD RESULT IN MORE DIRE CONSEQUENCES. WE WERE LUCKY I WAS TRAVELING AT A LOW RATE OF SPEED THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED. THIS IS FORCING US TO BUY A NEW CAR WHEN WE STILL OWE $8000 ON THE MAZDAZ WE WANT TO BE REIMBURSED FOR THIS AND THE ACCIDENT WE HAD AND THE RISK IT OUT THE LIVES OF ME AND MY CHILDREN IN. FURTHERMORE MAZDA SAID THERE IS A SHORTAGE OF PARTS WHICH MEANS THEY WON'T REPLACE IF THERE IS NO SIGN OF LOOSENESS. THIS IS REDICULOUS AS MY CRASH OCCURRED A FEW MONTHS AFTER BEING INSPECTED. THEY ARE ENDANGERING LIVES

DURING THE DRIVE TO THE CAR SHOP (LITERALLY 1 MILE FROM HOME) THE AXLE/BEARING OR FRONT SUSPENSION SEPARATED FROM THE CAR!!! THE FRONT LEFT WHEEL AND JOINTS SEPARATED FROM THE CAR; THE WHEEL LOOKS LIKE IT WAS BREAKING OFF! WE WERE DRIVING AROUND 15MPH! NO ONE WAS HURT AND THANK GOODNESS IT WAS AROUND 11AM SO THERE WAS NO TRAFFIC AROUND TO MAKE THINGS WORSE. THE CAR HAD TO BE TOWED TO THE CAR SHOP WHICH WAS ONLY FEET AWAY FROM THE SCENE, WHICH WAS AN ADDED CHARGE! *PHOTOS OF INCIDENT ARE ALSO AVAILABLE
