Mazda B-Series Engine problems by year

Transmission 1st/2nd gear synchromesh went out 5 times, finally mazda admitted something was wrong with engine,3x was under warranty, last 2x I paid all costs. Judge ruled against mazda in small claims court.

Tl* the contact owns a 2000 mazda b3000. The contact stated that the vehicle unexpectedly caught on fire while it was parked in a residential driveway. The vehicle was towed to a salvage yard and was not diagnosed to determine the cause of the failure. The manufacturer was made aware of the incident. A police/fire report was not filed. The approximate failure mileage was 400,000.

I have had a head gasket replace on this 1998 mazda b4000 within 61,000 miles. The first head gasket replacement was 1-21-2008. Now the same thing seems to be happening at 78,100 miles are there any issues with this model? I only drive the truck to work and back which is only about 5 miles from my home. Also the front end suspension makes a loud squeaking/popping noise when you turn the steering wheel or hit a rough place in pavement. The "key in the ignition" buzzer keeps dinging after you take the key out of the ignition. *Tr

Throttle sticks wide open on my 1998 mazda b2500 truck. Only recourse is to turn engine off to slow down. Have had it in to mazda shop twice for this problem. First time under warranty, could not find the problem second time, mazda says not covered under warranty, even though they had a tsb for this problem. I don't want to be a fatal statistic, because of yet another vehicle manufacturers failure to act. *Tr

I was driving in the high way and braked for there was traffic ahead and as soon as my rpm went low my truck suddenly hesitated deeply and turned off. *Tr

Engine cooling system had internal corrosion which caused heating failure (thermostat). In new hampshire when the temperature is at or below zero, the risk of freezing to death because the car will not heat properly could have its consequences. In order to correct the problem, the engine had to be replaced (used engine) at a cost of $3000.00 The problem was caused, most likely by incorrect antifreeze installed in the engine. This was done either at the factory or the new car dealership when the car was preped for sale. *Tr

Tl*the contact owns a 1998 mazda b2500. While driving 50 mph and attempting to decelerate, the contact must place the vehicle into neutral and then turn off the ignition. The vehicle's engine overpowers the brakes. The contact feels that this is a safety issue because the vehicle should be stopped by applying the brakes. In addition, the throttle sticks and remains open. The brake failure has been occurring for the last eight years. The vehicle has been taken to the repair shop three times regarding the failure, but no failure was identified. The failure mileage was 35,000.

The vehicle has several safety issues. 1. The door ajar light on dash repeatedly comes on as well as inside light while driving. This problem has occurred since vehicle was new and never repaired correctly by mazda facility. 2. Truck has original wilderness ht tires from firestone, with 22,000 miles on them, and just had vibration and veering to right. Found ball on tread of drivers side steer tire, where apparently the tread is separating from the tire. The dot code on these tires is w2uu ipo479,...

I purchased a new mazda 2300 mid march 2007. The sticker stated that it got 28 mpg. I immediately noticed that I was getting approximately 11 to 16 mpg. I took the vehicle to the dealership to be checked, roger beasley's premier mazda. The dealership found no problem ,and the manager stated that what it ) is and suppossed to get. I took the truck ito a different dealership,mazda south, and they found a faulty sensor. I noticed the truck was idiling at 2000 rpm. On thursday, april 5, 2007, I smelled gas and the truck's engine caught on fire. The truck was totaled. The dealership informed me that that is your problem. *Ak

Since february 2005 I have had my mazda rx8 serviced for engine noises, deceleration problems, stalling problems and restart problems. The vehicle begins to idle rough and just stalls out (twice in the middle of busy intersections with oncoming traffic-life threatening situation) and cannot be restarted. The vehicle has to be towed in to the dealership for restart. The pcm has been reflashed several times, plugs have been changed and the problem still persists. I am afraid for my life and will not let anyone...

Dt: this mazda had a vibration problem . Recently, had a stalling problem. The dealer tried to get consumer to trade I in vehicle. After stopping at a stop sign would have to push the gas pedal to the floor to get it to move. The service manager found out the were having the same problems in high heat areas.. This started happening on june 30, 2005.*Ak

While pulling into my driveway, I was braking to park while the automatic transmission was still in drive. Suddenly, the engine started to rev on its own, while my foot was on the brake. The tachometer started reading in the danger zone, and the engine was revving out of control. White smoke started to come out from under the hood. I was able to put the car into park and turn off the engine. It was quite a frightening experience.

2 Occurances in 3000 miles of engine loosing power, then starts to buck above 3500-4000 rpm. This first happened on the freeway and it was difficult staying out of the way of traffic until I could exit. The second occurance was after I had exited the freeway onto a 2 lane. I then drove 30 miles to home. Both times it was ok the next morning. Dealer cannot replicate the problem. Several owners of this model car (2004 mazdaspeed miata )have had this problem as reported on www.Mazda-speed.Com forum.
