What owners wrote
The contact owns a 2010 Mazda Mazda6 . The contact stated while driving approximately 25 mph and drove over a bump and lost control of the vehicle and crashed into another vehicle. The contact stated the disc off warning light was illuminated. The contact stated no one was injured nor sought medical attention. A police report was not filed. The vehicle was not drivable.
Noticed a knocking noise developing in front passenger side. Took the car to a local garage to have it checked out and to get new tires and alignment. I was notified that the sub-frame was rotted out and the car was no longer safe to drive. Contacted mazda for new sub-frame and was notified that the part has been on back order for 6 months and they had no idea when they would be available. Now I am stuck with an 8 year old car that is unsafe to drive with no hope for repair.
