What owners say
On a very snowy day after a 20 minute ride we experienced total brake failure. Dealer towed car. The next day the dealer told me the repairs would cost about $2000.00 dollars. They said both brake lines burst due to severe corrosion. Since this was an extreme expense. We purchased a new car. I feel no braking system should ever experience total brake failure, and feel that mazda should at least replace one of the brake lines to make sure that someone doesnt get killed.
Rear brakes failed due to calipers locking up. Second time it has happened. Also, . Air bag light flashes on & off.*ak the rear calipers lock up caused the brake pads to burn. Air bag module failed at 100000 miles.
Emergency brake failure.
Abs brake failure; also replaced left rear caliper.
Disc handbrake failed to release, destroying pads/calipers; vehicle spun as right rear wheel locked, vehicle fire erupted.
Abs, brake failure, while driving at speed of 35mph, anti-lock system blew up,causing 75% loss of effectiveness and ABS light did not come on
Total loss of braking ability while driving at 20-30 MPH twice, once resulting in an accident./injury.
