A recall on my airbags
Was driving on the highway when the check engine light came on. Not 10 minutes later, i lost acceleration and steering. Managed to get to the shoulder just in time before my car pretty much died. The water light and battery light came on when i came to a stop. Mechanic discribes it as 'catastrophic engine failure'. Other than the check engine light, there were no other warnings. The temperature gage was normal and there were no weird sounds or smoke. Diagnostic readings said a coolant leak lead to the radiator overheating which caused the engine to seize. The freeze frame data says 'p0117 engine coolant temperature sensor 1 circuit low'. I researched that and it said that when 'low', the check engine will come on but there will probably be no other warnings and that the sensor usually needs to be replaced around 100k miles. My vehicle is at 51k miles. Currently have 3k in repairs which does not include the cost of an engine.

I nave had to replace the brakes 15 times starting at 18,896 miles and the lights 15 times since 20,662 miles.i have been pulled over several times about the lights, after they had just been replaced.i was told that the right and left harness needed to be replaced.i just took it back for the 15th time this time the harness is rusted supposedly because of a crack in the covering, if that is why it was rusted why was it not taken care of when it occurred while it was under warranty.i haven't been given an explanation for the brakes.now they are suggesting i should think about purchasing another car when this was is not paid off.

My 2013 mazda 6 have some brake related issues, i was able to hear the vaccum or air leakage noise while applying brakes. Car takes longer distance to stop or at times it keeps rolling at the time of hard braking. Took it to local mazda dealership and found out its the brake booster leaking and needs to be replaced which estimates around $600. I was trying to find answers online and looks like mazda had the same issues with other models too from 2011 models. I need to know if this is a safety concern and mazda should be extending their safety warranty ofr these known issues or defective parts.

Related to mazda recall number 2818i - front frame rotting out. They applied a bandaid fix under the recall, to only 1 side of the vehicle and the part they used does not even connect to the actual suspension pieces that are rotting out of the frame. It is basically a plate to keep the rotting frame from separating completely on only 1 side. The problem is the entire frame is still rotting at a crazy excessive rate. I have had many used, older vehicles and have never seen a car so new almost rendered undrivable due to the frame condition. My mechanic said it should have all been replaced given how much corrosion/rust is on the entire frame instead of only a bracket on one side... And the fix they performed is nothing more than a liability treatment to keep the car from completely falling apart and killing someone when the frame fails on that side. The frame was left in place and is rotting faster than i have even seen on a vehicle especially at less than 10years old and less than 100k miles. Nhtsa needs to follow up on this recall as some dealers are doing the bear minimum to 'fix' the issue instead of replacing the frame as they should be....some of the cars were newer and were not yet experiencing the heavy rust at the time of the recall but fast forward a year or two and the entire frame is nearly junk covered by a fancy metal plate on only 1 side that is simply intended to keep the rotting frame from separating and nothing else...it didn't at all 'fix' the problem. I cannot submit pics right now, but given this is related to a previous recall not sure it is necessary...look into how they are 'bandaiding' some of the 2013's while replacing the entire frames on 2011's...it's not even close to the same repair and the 'bandaid' fix does nothing to address the actual problem of premature rot on the frame. I can send an example of both upon request.
