2011 Mazda 3 Grand Touring Electricals Crashed

[kjguin]

HI,

Love my Mazda 3. But driving to work yesterday it stalled and every warning light came on (except oil pressure). Got it started. Car began to lug and chug (it's a manual but I wasn't popping the clutch), power steering stopped working, speedometer stopped working. Most scary, ABS and brake warning lights on too. Got it into dealership but they have no idea what's wrong and have to consult with engineers in Japan.

They are saying can't give any predictions as to when/if it will be repaired and are giving me a loaner car free indefinitely.

Any ideas?

I have no idea, except a bad/failed ground for the ECU. Pure SWAG on my part. What has the dealer said? Or are you stuck until Monday?
