car abruptly stops when accelerating on slight incline
This is the 4th time it has happened. Concerned enough for safety and possible expensive repairs that I would prefer to have covered under warranty. Finally had time to research on internet and now I am even more concerned. I did not see the exact same problem with my make and model, but problems were very simular dealing with non acceleration. A lot of the problems seemed worse than mine and I wonder if that is where mine will progress to. Also saw a lot of simular problems happening on "slight inclines". No one has been able to get any satisfaction from Mazda, as problem cant be duplicate. I figure this will be my outcome, as problem is extremely intermittent and there are no recalls. I feel my only hope is a class action law suit!

Second time. Now 100% sure I didn't touch the break. Comes to a complete abrupt stop. Who ever is in the car is thrown forward. Thank goodness this has so far only happened in my driveway!

on slight inclines car comes to abrupt stop during accelerate
This was the first time. Wasnt 100% sure that my foot didnt accidentally bump the break; although I felt pretty confident that I hadn't.

on slight inclines car comes to abrupt stop during accelerate
Third time. And second time close together. Concerned its getting worse. I work a lot of hours and hadn't had time to address the problem. So it is now becomming a pain in the ass! Still only happening on my driveway which leads me to beleave that the slight incline has something to do with it.
