Driving along a highway (left side of road) i crashed into large boulders of concrete scattered along the road that was caused by a previous accident. traveling at 60 mph my vehicle launched off the ground slamming back down on all four tires. my vehicle then spun out of control crashing to the side guard rail impacting the side of the vehicle 2x's (right side of road) resulting in disabling damage to my vehicle. to my surprise the airbags did not deploy (particularly my side airbags). later i learned that mazda (manufacture) reported a recall for my vehicle relating to a potential malfunction of side airbags. upon my discovery i learned that mazda had learned of the defect around august 2019, but had not issued a recall notice on their website until january 1st 2020. my accident took place dec 4th 2019, and i should also add that as of yet mazda still has not made any direct attempts (email, mail, phone) to notify me of the potential hazard. had it not been for my own inquiries i still may have not known that there was a safety issue within my vehicle especially when i needed it the most. i don't want to come off as being dramatic but that accident i was involved in could of cost my wife and i our lives. for that reason i am seeking to retrieve the event data records (edr) of my vehicle so that i may determine if the airbags failed to deploy as noted as a potential hazard or if the impact and damages where simply not substantial enough to cause the airbags to deploy. i asked my insurance company if they could assist me in gathering that data which they first claimed to be possible, but shortly after i was informed that they did not have the sophistication to do so, hence forwarding me to this website. please advise on how i may retrieve that information, any help would be greatly appreciated. thank you.
Various software control features transiently stop working. the navigation system has failed to come on several times. the key fob stops working and then works again.the problems are always transient and then start working again. the worst thing that happened was the front sensor failed to work and a small pole was hit and did damage to the front fender.
Car accelerated unassisted and the brakes did not stop it . mounted a concrete divider and slammed into another car. vehicle was going about 5mph pulling out of parking space and turning onto exit driveway.
2016 mazda 6 had a sunroof that exploded on jan 11, 2017 while driving. it sounded like a gunshot and i almost wrecked. it exploded upward and out of the vehicle although we had a lot of glass that rained back in on us and the inside of her car. the vehicle was only 8 months old. mazda replaced the sunroof out of "good will" (as they put it) her vehicle is not the first vehicle to do this - google it! they are refusing to repair the leather seats that the glass got embedded in and ripped and are refusing to fix the paint where the glass flew out and took a chunk of paint off the roof and the trunk of the vehicle. we have been trying to work through this with them since january. i have been on the phone with corporate mazda who in turn have been trying to get passport mazda on the phone for 2 weeks to get their side of the story. the have not made a connection with corporate in over two weeks. isn't that like ignoring your boss? besides the fact that mazda will not stand behind their product and quality one of my daughter first "adult purchases" has not turned out to be a disheartening experience. they have not heard the last from us as we stand up for what is right! do not purchase a mazda as their customer service is less then satisfactory and we purchased not one but two mazda's on the same day! --
The sunroof in my car exploded and partially shattered while parked in my work's parking lot. glass was all over the exterior and interior of the car. what glass was left had cracked completely and was unstable. i was able to get the car to my local mazda dealer and they are replacing it under warranty.
I have a 2016 mazda 6 gt with stock 19" dunlop tires. i bought the car with around 80 miles & at the time of the incident was around 6800 miles. i was traveling to work going around 72 mph & the left rear tire blewout causing an accident on the interstate. tires should not blowout that quickly with proper care of the vehicle. the tire tread wore too fast.
