2006 Mazda B-Series owner 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.

Takata inflators and other, they keep sending me cards and letters, which warn me not to drive my car. Then they say they will tow my car and provide me with a other car. But their not doing anything. I'm very concerned at this point and I need them to take action and help me.

This vehicle was smoldering burning and smoke without fire. I have taken my vehicle in for repairs 5 times for the transmission and other related issues. This vehicle as had a new transmission added within two months of ownership and it still leaks. The brakes pads wear to fast. *nm
