The Mazda Connect infotainment system will begin to press random buttons and continue to perform its own actions, at one point resulting in it dimming my screen so low I could not see my backup camera screen, which is a huge safety hazard.

I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK ON 2-16-2021, ALL OF A SUDDEN WITH OUT WARNING, EVERY WARNING AND INFORMATION LIGHT LIGHT UP LIKE A XMAS TREE, THE POWER STEERING WENT AWAY MAKING IT HARD TO DRIVE, THE ENGINE RAN IN LIMP MODE., I MANAGE TO GET IT PULLED OFF TO A SAFE SPOT , TURN OFF THE CAR, AND THEN TRY TO RESTART . NO GO , DEAD THE DASH LIGHTS LIGHT UP BUT THE STARTER WILL NOT ENGAGE . TOWED TO DEALER, 1ST THEY SAYS ITS THE ENGINE COMPUTER, THEN ITS THE , TRANSMISSION COMPUTER . BUT WHEN I GET THE BILL , I SEE IT IS THE TRANSMISSION VALVE BODY HTTPS://WWW.MAZDASWAG.COM/OEM-PARTS/MAZDA-AUTOMATIC-TRANSMISSION-VALVE-BODY-FZ2121100J . MY CAR HAS ONLY 39900 MI ON IT ,MAZDA REFUSES TO HONOR ITS 5YR 50000 MI POWER TRAIN WARRANTY EVEN AFTER CALLING MAZDA CUSTOMER CARE

THE INFOTAINMENT SYSTEM COMPUTER IS ON CONSTANT REBOOT LOOP. AT FIRST IT WOULD ONLY OCCUR WHEN WEATHER WAS VERY COLD OR HOT. THEN IT STARTED HAPPENING AT LEAST 75% OF THE TIME NO MATTER THE WEATHER. I HAD MAZDA DEALERSHIP LOOK AT IT PRIOR TO FULL WARRANTY RUNNING OUT, THEY COULDN'T FIND AN ORIGIN OF ISSUE AND SIMPLY CHECKED FOR SOFTWARE UPDATES. IT STARTED HAPPENING MORE FREQUENTLY AND PAST FULL WARRANTY SO CANT GET LOOKED AT OR DIAGNOSED FOR FREE. A RECALL FOR THE INFOTAINMENT SCREEN WAS NOTIFIED TO ME AND REPLACED AT DEALERSHIP BUT DID NOT RESOLVE THE ISSUE. WHEN IT REBOOTS, IT OCCURS FOR ALMOST ENTIRE DRIVE, MAKING IT ALONG WITH ALL ITS FEATURES UNUSABLE. THIS IS DANGEROUS SINCE THE BACKUP CAMERA BLACKS OUT SPONTANEOUSLY WHEN IN REVERSE. THE HANDS FREE DRIVING, GPS, MUSIC, AND EVERYTHING ELSE RELATING TO INFOTAINMENT SYSTEM IS UNABLE TO BE USED. MANY OTHERS HAVE HAD THIS SAME ISSUE AND MAZDA HAS NOT RECALLED THE PART. BECAUSE IT TURNS OFF ABRUPTLY WHEN BACKUP CAM AND GPS IS IN USE, IT IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. IT IS GENERALLY ALSO DISAPPOINTING BECAUSE A MAJOR FACTOR IN PURCHASING THAT YEAR AND MODEL OF MAZDA WAS DUE TO THE AWESOME INFOTAINMENT SYSTEM, BUT BEFORE WARRANTY EXPIRED AND AFTER I HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO USE IT 90% OF THE TIME.

MY BACKUP CAMERA WORKS AND ONE RADIO STATION THERE IS NO GPS AND BLUETOOTH JUST CONTINUES TO REBOOT EVEN WHILE DRIVING

I PARKED AT THE TOP OF MY DRIVEWAY AT A SLIGHT INCLINE POSITION WITH THE EMERGENCY BRAKE ENGAGED AND THE CAR WAS IN SECOND GEAR (MANUAL TRANSMISSION). IT WAS IN A STATIONARY POSITION AT THAT TIME. MY FAMILY EXITED THE VEHICLE AND WE WENT INSIDE OUR HOME. APPROXIMATELY A HALF OUR LATER I NOTICE MY CAR ROLLED DOWN MY DRIVEWAY AND CRASHED IN BETWEEN TWO TREES ON MY PROPERTY. EITHER THE EMERGENCY BRAKE FAILED OR THE CAR'S TRANSMISSION FAILED WHILE PARKED. THE CAR WAS FOUND AT THE BOTTOM OF MY PROPERTY STILL IN GEAR AND HAD THE EMERGENCY BRAKE IN THE ENGAGED POSITION.

DURING HOT SUMMER MONTHS WHEN RUNNING ERRANDS (FOR EXAMPLE) WHICH WOULD REQUIRE STOPPING AND RE-STARTING THE VEHICLE SEVERAL TIMES, THE CABIN WILL BEGIN TO FILL WITH GAS FUMES. THIS WILL START ABOUT 30 MINUTES INTO THE TRIP. THE FUMES BECOME SO STRONG THAT I BECOME SICK AND HAVE A HEADACHE. YOU CAN SMELL FUMES INSIDE AND OUTSIDE OF THE VEHICLE. THIS DOES NOT HAPPEN DURING HIGHWAY TRAVEL. EVEN THOUGH THIS IS A RECALL ISSUE FOR THE 2016 MAZDA 3, FOR SOME REASON IT DOES NOT APPLY TO MY MAZDA 3. IF I WANT TO HAVE THIS REPAIRED, I WOULD HAVE TO PAY OUT OF POCKET FOR SOMETHING THAT SHOULD BE REPLACED BY MAZDA.

ALL OF THE WINDOWS HAVE BUBBLES AND RIPPLES IN THE FACTORY TINT WHICH CAUSES POOR VISIBILITY. THE WINDOWS HAVE TO BE ROLLED DOWN TO TO SEE ONCOMING TRAFFIC. THE RIPPLES AND BUBBLES ARE SO BAD THAT YOU CAN'T SEE OUT OF THE REAR VIEW OR SIDE VIEW MIRRORS WHICH COULD EASILY CAUSE AN ACCIDENT.
