I am trying to get the airbags replaced but i cannot find a place who will service our car. it is our family car and we are trying to avoid driving it until the airbag problem is fixed.
I took my car to ferman mazda of brandon 9809 adamo drive, tampa (813) 623-6600 to get the recall done. they had my car for two and half months. said they did recall on airbag. now my airbag light came on and doesn't shut off. i was told that they replaced the parts that they recalled but now i checked online it says it wasn' and airbag light turned on. now i know that they didn't do what i was told was done.
Takata inflators: i received several recall notices (e.g. 16v-594, 13v425000, 11v134000, 09v043000) regarding my 2009 mazda6 ([xxx]) and tracy mazda conducted various repairs. during each repair, i mentioned the airbag inflator alert (see attachment). after service or repair was conducted, i was informed that the problem was reset or cleared by the mechanic. for a period of one week of commuting (home to work or vice versa), the inflator indicator disappeared. then it returned, during short warm up, after driving a short distance, intermittently while driving on highways/freeways, etc. i returned the vehicle following the last recall/service-repair per receipts notation, i was informed that i have to pay $85 for diagnosis fee because the air inflator indicator is not a part of the foregoing problem. if indeed the necessary repairs were done right, should my vehicle airbag inflator indicator would indicate a warning? is resetting the airbag inflator indicator the "real" solution to the problem? information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6). *tr

2009 mazda 6. consumer writes in regards to passenger airbag safety recall. *ld *js
Takata recall-i got a recall message in the mail. i went to dealer-maintenance and they said they fixed the problem. i have a copy of the report at home. i had it ( supposedly) fixed and then i got a notice from mazda corporate that it still was not fixed. i have an intermittent steady airbag alarm. they said they fixed it 8/10/17. i reported to the dealer that i got a notice it had not been fixed yet. they said they did fix it and the notice was about the passenger airbag and it was a new airbag recall. i asked when they could fix it and they told me it would be a while in order to get the parts. i don't know if this is true or not. my safety and my passengers are at risk. i drive people in my car. i sent a copy of the maintenance report stating they had fixed it to my sister in case i am involved in a fatality. i can fax the maintenance report.
Tl* takata recall. the contact owns a 2009 mazda mazda6. the contact received notification of nhtsa campaign number: 17v429000 (air bags) however, the parts to do the repair were unavailable. the contact stated that the manufacturer exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. the contact called matt castrucci mazda at (937) 434-4723 located at 45549, 3013 mall park dr, dayton, oh 45449 where it was confirmed that the parts were not available for the recall remedy. the manufacturer was not notified of the issue. the contact had not experienced a failure. (vin tool confirms parts not available).
Takata recall: in late june 2017 i made an appointment three days in advance to have a routine service and to have the recall work completed at perry mazda of santa barbara. on arrival i was informed the required parts were not in stock. i was told i would be called when the parts arrived. i was never called. on august 1, i left a voice mail with a service tech asking if the parts were in. i never received a response. in mid-augustt, i went to the dealer's service department in person. i was told the parts would arrive the next day and that a service tech would call me the next day. i never received a call. the recall work remains undone.
Takata recall there have been two recalls in the last few months on the front passenger airbag of my car. they "fixed" both problems but are still telling me my passenger side airbag won't work in an accident without me paying $500 for them to replace a third part of the airbag system. it is clear to me this entire passenger side airbag is faulty and if they are messing with the lives of their consumers by extorting safety for money when they know the flaw is in their own installation/parts they are an unethical brand. it seems more likely that they are insisting on this purchase in exchange for safety so they can make back some of the money that the previous recalls have cost them. either way, the recall needs to be expanded to include whatever additional components might be damaged due to mazda. it is not feasible that three components of my passenger seat airbag have gone wrong in the last few months but the only two under recall were not the issue. they are telling me the current issue requires an replacement of the entire air bag module.
Takata recall i just finally had my passenger side airbag repaired, after nearly a year of effort and two separate recalls. i was working with dgdg auto group, who own both capitol mazda and steven's creek mazda in san jose, ca. i have been trying to get this resolved since i received the first recall in 2016. i have been told that parts were not in stock, that i had to wait for the indicator light to change from flashing to solid or vice versa. even the experience the last two days has be substandard, but i won't list the reasons for that. i just wanted to record my extreme frustration getting this glaring safety issue resolved. i love my mazda, by dgdg are terrible.

Takata recall we have received the recall notices and have taken our vehicle to the dealer to check on the repair. we have received notices not that state in bold underlined print "until this repair is performed, do not allow passengers toride in the front passenger seat. now we can not have anyone use that seat and i sure don't want my grandson to be in a car seat in the middle of the back seat for fear that he could be injured! our dealer has no idea when they will receive the parts for repair! this needs to be taken care of now! i have to sit in the back sear while my husband drives the car! this is just crazy!!

As well as the takata recall, the passenger side of my vehicle is literally melting off. the airbag cover is sticky to the touch and who knows if it is melted into place. i've seen many other complaints and i've seen that mazda has tried to charge people for labor which is absurd.
