This is a complaint about Mazda. I have brought my vehicle in 3 times, after they confirmed an appointment and stated they had the part. All three times it appears whoever makes the appointment doesn’t communicate with the dealer Service Center. I have the FOURTH appointment this Wednesday at Royal Motors, San Francisco. I will call a day ahead to make sure the part is there before I bring it in. I know it’s an older vehicle and they have to order parts. They made the appointment for me, after…

Mazda keeps sending letters about my last chance to repair the airbag problem.I have responded multiple times, they have not contacted me except to send more PR letters. They have scared my wife to the point she will not ride with me. My daughter forbids my grandson from riding with me. There is no mazda dealer on the Big Island of Hawai'i. So, what is my recourse, since they are unwilling or unable to address the issue in a meaningful way.
