Engine will stall out while driving vehicle loses all power check engine light comes on battery light comes on traction control light comes on. when engine stalls out and then i lose power steering and brake control and will have to pull over to the side to restart the vehicle. engine will sputter on start up which sounds like a faulty mass airflow sensor this is a 2014 mazda mazda 6 with 57000 miles
Fow (forward obstruction warning) inspection required flashes on dash as if a loose connection. only flashes for about 3 seconds then goes away. i manually turned off fow to stop the flashing. but will turn back on once i restart the car. the cruise control off/on switch seems to affect the warning flashes as well. once the car warms up, things seem normal. during driving this effects the cruise control and system overall. happens every time i start the car and start driving
With no consistancey, the car would loose power. at times, i thought the car would loose full power, in the middle of my commute, i would be forced to pull over and shut the car off. most times, the car would return to normal conditions. when i brought it in for repair, byers mazda of columbus, told me it needed a tune-up. once again, the car almost stalled out and i managed to coast into a parking space. now the same dealership is informing me for the first time that the car has an i-loop system and the battery that should have lasted five years, now less than the 3 years old, needs to be replaced for over $500.00. i bought this car used with an extended warranty and although it was my mistake, the dealership never disclosed the i-loop system and the problems that go with it. this i-loop battery will apparently last 2-3 years only and is very expensive. i guess it is legal for dealership sales reps to misrepresent the car maintenance because they say it is my responsibility to know what i purchased. i will never buy from byers auto for any model car!
When placing the car in park and pressing the push start/stop, the car will not turn completely off. i have to repeatedly place the gear in all dnrp several times(5 or more) before the car realizes it is fully in park and all power turns completely off. i should not have to do this in order to turn the vehicle completely off. the vehicle is in stop position and in park. the vehicle will not power all the way off. leaving the radio and lights on and disables the ability to lock the doors or set the alarm.
When driving on a street or highway i can still drive with the emergency brake on in the up position, and it doesn't affect my vehicles forward movement what so ever.

I was driving down a street @ 40mph when the infotainment, speedometer, shut off and i could not accelerate. the stability control warning came on and stayed on. after a brief moment, the stability warning turned off, but the check engine light went on. the car drove normally for the rest of the day, but the very next day, at a stop light, the same thing occurred, but this time, i could not accelerate past 2000 rpms, nor reach 20 mph. i pulled over on the side, and turned off the car. then turned it back on. it drove normally with the check engine light on the rest of the day, but this could be a very dangerous situation.
