First time was “fixed” until the second time when they realized one of the updates wasn’t completed fully from the first time. Now, I don’t know. I’m kind of done dealing with this issue every week & being scared to turn on my car every time to see this alert & the ‘check engine’ light on. Say what you want about, “well it’s a brand new car for Mazda, they need to work out the kinks” it’s still extremely annoying & leaves a sour taste in my mouth.
I think it’s time to look at my states Lemon Law & look for some legal ways out of this lease because apparently whatever these dealers are doing, isn’t working. I’m not blaming them either, I just can’t keep going to the dealer every week.
If you get to the point where the manufacturer will replace car you can keep your same loan. You just ask that the new car be substituted for the old car. They call this substitution of collateral. I did this a few years ago when I got a bad Subaru Outback. They gave me a new car and the dealer arranged the substitution. I was told it was more work and a little complicated but I was able to keep my very low interest loan.
