problem #1

Mar 172006

MAZDA6 4-cyl

  • Manual transmission
  • 8,000 miles
Engine power decreases substantially going uphill when you push accelerator. Even after the recall item was fixed (reprogrammed computer), it still does it, especially on other then 93 octane gas which is not always available. When merging into traffic, had a few close calls with accidents.
