2 week old mazda problem

[amanthasam]

I've had my mazda for about 2 1/2 weeks. I'm driving down the road this morning and it stalls on me. It came back on and drove fine. Took it to the dealership and they can't find anything. My car has about 400 miles on it. Did anyone else have this problem.

Throttle Body needs to be replaced.

Its an automatic

It's an automatic. I got it back from the dealership and they still can't find anything. The "reflashed it and did some type of calibration" now it drives differently.

Sucks...it may crop up again. The TB issues are hard to get the first time, cause most of the dealerships never read the bulliteens mazda sends them.

If it happens again, take it to another dealership.

Many problems

I took it to another dealership and the guy at that dealership kept it real. He said that "it happens". The computer is learning my driving habits. He said that it may or may not happen again. I can respect that. Now the car is out of alignment though. It pulls to the right. 2 dealerships have checked it and say it is balanced. When I drive it drifts off to the right. What do you guys think. Am I being taken for a run here. Has anyone else had these type of problems out of Mazda.

when i disconnected the batery in my car the tranny was shifting firmly, but the manual states that the engine should be kept idling for 5 minutes so it can relearn the idle and the tranny would shift firmly ultil it relearned everything...

I dont like all of this new electric and computer s*** in cars, Should just be the driver, gas pedal, and engine.

I dont like all of this new combustion s***, Should just be the driver, chariot, and horse.

I dont like all of this new wheels and chariot s***, Should just be the rider and horse.

I dont like all of this new big animal horse s***, Should just be the man, his feet, and the earth.

my alignment went out twice during the first 12,000 miles.. fortunetaly it is covered under warrenty at that point... I now have 24k miles on it and haven't had an alignment done since 12k and I'm tracking straight as an arrow..
