10 Complaints
Mazda keeps sending letters about my last chance to repair the airbag problem.I have responded multiple times, they have not contacted me except to send more PR letters. They have scared my wife to the point she will not ride with me. My daughter forbids my grandson from riding with me. There is no mazda dealer on the Big Island of Hawai'i. So, what is my recourse, since they are unwilling or unable to address the issue in a meaningful way.
