Vehicle stalled going down hill at about 35 MPH. This could have turned into a deadly situation had conditions been different. I pulled over, parked, took key out of ignition. Interior light turned on by itself. After a minute, I restarted the car and drove immediately to the dealership. They said they had received a bulletin about this problem. I wonder why they didn't fix it if they knew about it! I was almost ready to use the 72-hour return clause. They claimed to know what the problem was and to start fixing it on monday. In the meantime, they gave me a loaner vehicle. I have lost a lot of confidence in the vehicle and mazda. After this occured, I looked for problems similar to this on line. See carreview.com. There are other reports of this happening. There should be a recall on the part(s) or system causing the problem. I was on a date when this happened. It may have scared her away!
