2014 Mazda Mazda6 owner complaints

When I put the car in park and push the push start/stop button, the car shuts off but the accessories and middle console display stay on. I have to keep shifting the car between the park position and the drive position before I put it back to the park position for the car to completely shut-off. This car is available for inspection. As far as safety is concerned, the only thing I can think of is that if the car does not completely shut off the battery would drain and not be able to start the car. I took the car to my mechanic and he said that I need to take it to the dealer. The dealer was informed and the dealer said that it was not a recall. The car was only inspected by my mechanic. There were no warning lights or messages in the car or symptoms prior to this happening.

When placing the car in park and pushing the off/on button an error message will appear saying the vehicle must be in park when it is and shows that on the dashboard and by looking at the gear shifter. The only way to fix it so you can turn off the electricity to the accessories and be able to lock your car is to start it again, put it into a different gear, and try again. Sometimes it will work one the second attempt but most times it takes 4 attempts for me to get it to recognize that it's in park.

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

When you turn the car off the accessory stays on. In other words it doesn’t shut off all the way. That is a hazard because the battery will go dead in time. I looked on the internet and found a lot of complaints about this issue with these cars. The car has a defective shifter switch. Mazda won’t recall the part even though there have been many complaints. This is a defective part. If a part is defective they should recall the part. I don’t see why I should have to pay $400.00 to put a $50 part in my car that is defective. My car is available for inspection upon request.

I was at a stoplight with my foot on the brake when the engine started to rev up, then I heard a thud and the car lurched forward and it felt like I was hit from behind. I pulled over to check for damage but nothing. This is a safety issue and there should be a recall as I see on the web others are having the same experience. The car is going to the Mazda dealer asap to see if they can correct the problem.
