So ever since I purchased my mazda the f@k3r has been breaking down on me first the front end gave out they changed the struts and springs and all kinds of things took it to mazda maybe 7 times for the front end. Now the back end it makeing a loud sound I thought it was the breaks at first but then I realized it was way to loud. like the whole back end was going to fall off so I called mazda up and told them to come pick up this lemon. I am tired of it and I put in a complaint to customer service so now they have to look at it and see if they can fix it and if not I am going to sue for geting sold a lemon.

wow...sorry about your luck. my 2006 speed6 has 31k miles on it and has been virtually trouble free.

 

[freekwonder]

Yeah sorry to hear about your luck. I've had my MS6 for 2 1/2 years now and still lover her.

Sucks dude sorry to hear that. Every brand of car has its troublemakers. My mom's 3 year old lexus es300 has had its tranny swapped 3 times lawl.

Sweet Jesus... Did Lexus check the rest of the drivetrain for alignment?

All it was was 2 small rocks stuck between the dust plate and rotor.
It was very loud and now that they are out no sound at all so I am happy I don't have to pay for nothing.

Don't know the details. All I know it has had 2 swaps and some sort of other problem with the tranny.

Other than that its been good though . Warranty ftw.

I had a drivetrain alignment problem in an old 67 Camaro I had. I learned the hard way after replacing 3 transmissions and wearing a ring and pinion in a rear end.

Dam it I got a dam flat and one of the wheel studs is missing so I only have 4 bolts holding on the tire and is it safe to drive like that?

I would limit your driving speed and driving distance on it. I would also check the torque daily until you get your replacement studs.

Another dam stud broke off when they were fixing my flat and I tried all the parts stores around town and no one had any so now I am stuck with a lemon.

Surely you have a Mazda dealership somewhere close. They may even have some of those in stock at their service center. If nothing else, they can probably get some in the next day or two.

They had none in stock and the guy was like we could get some in about a week. The guy that was fixing my tire charged me $40 for takeing it apart and not doing sh!* to it.

Soon as I find a better job I am going to trade this car in what am I going to have to replace the bottom end until every part is new. I am just going to have to tell my wife we trade it in or keep on buying parts for it until I don't know when.

 

[Wagonbacker9]

sounds like the thing has you pretty bitter... wonder if the studs snapped because the dealer has had the wheels on and off so many times while looking at/fixing problems. did you ever install the lugs with an impact gun?

 

[EDM6-zoom zoom]

Well not me but I am sure the dealer has took it off with one many times.
