Last May, I told them the light for the heated, leather driver seat was not working. They said the heat wasn't working either and ordering the switch, which they installed in June. The light and heat now work. Late May, with 26K something miles on the car, I noticed an oily residue under my driver's side rear tire. When I drove it, it was very obvious that the oil came from the shock absorber as the ride & handling was bad. Dealer replaced.

Had to change both struts at about 68,000 miles. Also changed brake pads and turned rotors but brakes squeal. Brakes from Napa. This car has been problematic. Ride is terrible and extremely loud. Getting rid of it ASAP. Wheel bearing on driver's side needs replacement. Requires nearly complete teardown of all links and CV joint just to get to the bearing. Poor design and very costly in labor. Previous strut and brakes change, now this. Getting rid of it.

US $2500
After changing the entire engine and body harness, I discovered the culprit was the purge valve connector behind the fuel tank and charcoal canister. It was shorted causing the eng #1 fuse to pop. After 7 months and $2500, I finally got the car to run but probably needs a new body control module but don't know which one to get: the Mazda base or Mazda GT. The harness came from a base but I own a GT? After changing entire engine harness and body harness, some systems don't work properly. For example, the body control module likely needs to be replaced. The power steering, cruise control, heated seats, and sunroof don't work. No connectors for the heated seat switches, the ABS seat connector doesn't match the airbag under seat wiring.
