Takata recall. For the past year the airbag light has been coming on. It seems to occur at warmer temperatures and goes away and colder temperatures. The code that comes back is B2234 and this is associated with the driver's airbag. I believe this has occurred because of the replacement of the driver's side airbag replacement that was done on my vehicle due to the takata recall.

Takata recall. Took my Mazda to a certified Mazda dealership to replace the defected air bags but the airbag light still stays on making me concerned that the problem with my airbags has not been fixed. I have a 4 month old that rides in this vehicle and I am concerned for her safety.

The airbag deflated when I was involved in a car accident September 25, 2015. I suffered a fractured sternum from the airbag and severely multiple fractures in right ankle. This car was totaled. The accident was not my fault, the other car moved into my lane and I struck it head on.

Takata recall, over a year ago I did have a airbag recall for my inflator, which was for my Mazda 6 2007, I did have one of them replaced, not sure if it was the passenger side or the driver side now, but only one was replaced at the time because that was all that was recalled at that time, the dealer told me I would have to wait for the other side to be recall, so what if I had a accident in the meantime" the other airbag wouldn't work, because it hadn't been replaced? not very good! the dealer didn't seem to thrilled with the whole inflator recall thing and didn't have very good things to say about it, which made me worry about if the darn thing would work at all! well not too long after I got the second recall note for the other side inflator to be fixed I was in a car accident! great! well, I was hit from behind at 70mph, the car was hit on the right side and I was thrown into a spin, now, I was not hit in the front, nor did I actually hit dead on in the front of anything! but my windshield was cracked. My right side airbag did deploy and save me from a massive head injury! the car did as it was designed to do in a backend collision, it folded up, the back end took the blunt of the 70mph force, and saved me! I walked out of the car! but the car was totaled! my only question and it was a question of a few other people... was why did not the front end air bad deploy? was it not supposed to? because it had not been it hit hard enough? or because it needed to be replaced? not sure" all I can say is that thank goodness in a way I got hit from behind and not in the front, because I am not so sure if I could of depended on the front airbags working correctly! so my accident may have had a totally different outcome!

Takata recall, Mazda dealer, has failed to implement recalls in a timely manner. Scheduled service for recall repair. Delivered to dealer, returned later to pick up vehicle and was informed they did not have repair part components on hand. They agree to notify me when available to reschedule repair. Have received three notices from Mazda since, asking me if I no longer had the vehicle. Never contacted to reschedule repair.

Takata recall - my complaint is with the local Mazda dealer. I received the recall notice and followed the instructions to set up an appointment. When I arrived for the appointment I was told that the work could not be performed because the parts necessary were not ordered. In my opinion the dealership handled this appointment and the follow up poorly. The repair has not yet been accomplished due to my busy schedule and the lack of communication on behalf of the dealership. I am not sure what is considered a "reasonable amount of time" but in my opinion this should have been taken care of weeks ago. As of today I have an appointment scheduled for Wednesday February 22nd.
