2005 Mazda MPV Engine problems

Engine stalls or shut down completely when auto moves from high speed to low speed. Mazda 6 w/ 3.0 Liter engine, which is the same engine as this unit, has a similar issue - see here: http://www.6Crew.Com/files/tsb/01-016-06-2135.Pdf this is happening persistently for the last 2 years.

Tl* takata recall. The contact owns a 2005 mazda mpv. The contact stated that there was a random failure and various warning indicators flashed, including the service engine and air bag warning indicators. In addition, the interior lighting failed to function. The contact received notification of nhtsa campaign number: 16v354000 (air bags) several months ago and was unable to schedule a repair with a dealer within a reasonable time frame. The contact was uncertain of when the vehicle would be repaired. The failure mileage was not available. Parts distribution disconnect.

Vehicle is manifesting rough idle when turned-on with check engine light on and/or flashing. Engine and vehicle is jerking intermittently when driving at any speed. The vehicle was repaired last year through dealership but this kept happening for the third time within a year. Dealership indicated engine misfiring due to burnt engine coil. If this keeps happening even after being repaired for several times within a year, something is terribly wrong with mazda engineering. This is a tremendous safety issue specially for my family and other motorists, and this type of vehicle should be subject for recall. *Tr

The idle air control valve on these vans is seriously flawed and is prone to failure which stalls the engine and puts occupants in peril at high rates of speed without power braking or steering. Once stalled, the engine can often fail to restart, leaving the driver unprepared and paralyzed to react. Background - approximately six months after purchasing our van used (2-3 yrs old / 30k miles), we began to experience significant issues with the vehicle stalling randomly after 6 months of owning. Unfortunately,...

I was waiting to make a left turn into my drive way, waiting to clear oncoming traffic. When the oncoming traffic was cleared, I found a gap before the next car comes my way and I decided it was safe to make a left turn. I turned the wheels of my mazda mpv , but car went stalled, it would not move. I had to stop the engine, and restart the car. I searched the internet and many people have the same issue due to clogged up iac valve. This is a very big risk to the safety of the passengers and should be a recall. *Tr

I was driving at a very low speed in heavy traffic . Lane next to me started moving, so I decided to change lane, find a empty space between 2 vehicles and decided to make a turn. My mazda stalled , and did not move. I had to put it back to "park", stop the car, and restart, after that it ran ok. All this was on a freeway with moving traffic in the middle of the lane, when my wheels were turned and partially on the next lane and car body was standing still. I searched on the internet and it has happened to many people , due to iac valve getting clogged up. This should be a safety recall . *Tr

My mazda 2005 mpv van engine shuts down completely when slowing down, slowing around corners and sitting at red lights. There does not seem to any spuddering or anything engine runs great. Loss of steering is the biggest issue when engine cuts off. I have seen a bunch of other complaints about the same problem on the same model van im sure there's lots more. *Tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 mazda mpv. The contact stated when traveling at 15-35 mph, the vehicle would stall without warning. In addition, there was an abnormal knocking sound coming from the engine. The vehicle was taken to the dealer four times where the engine coil was replaced each time. The failure persisted. The failure mileage was 35,000 and the current mileage was 74,000.

We own a 2005 mazda mpv. Two years after purchasing the vehicle it started to shake and jerk as if it wanted to turn off, after taking it to the dealership it turns out the engine was misfiring due an ignition coil giving out. Nine months later it happens again. This time they replaced all 6 six ignition coils. Two years after replacing all six coils it happens again. This time they replaced the #3 coil. While at the dealership the service lady told us that this is a consistent problem with this vehicle and...

At 38,000 miles, the van started to have intermittent hesitations that randomly occurred. I needed to replace all ignition coils at a cost in excess of $600. *Tr

Was exiting parkway west westbound exit for route 22 in pittsburgh for weirton, wv; engine shut off on its own when engine went out of overdrive and increased its rpms and I let off of gas pedal to brake - lost power steering and brakes, maintained control, shifted to neutral, restarted engine - traction control light remained on for rest of trip to wv until key was returned to completely "off". Then all lights were reset to normal - no check engine warnings. This has occurred about 5 or 6 times again, always...

After 60k miles, my van started stalling when slowing down or speeding up. Not every time but often enough to concern my safety and the safety of my children. It happened twice today within 10 miles from each incident. *Tr
