Mazda 929 1989

• Recall 18286 [USA]: The safety belts would not provide adequate protection to an occupant in a vehicle crash.
  The front safety belt buckle release buttons can break. These red plastic release buttons are marked "press." if a button breaks, pieces can fall into the buckle assembly causing the buckle to operate improperly.
  owners should promptly check the condition and operation of both front safety belt buckles and carefully inspect the red release button for any breaks or cracks. They should ensure that both buckles are operating properly by inserting each latch plate into its buckle, tugging on the belt to make sure the latch is securely locked, and then pressing the release button. The latch plate should pop out of the buckle when the button is pressed. If either release button shows a sign of breaking or cracking or if either buckle fails to operate properly, owners should promptly contact their authorized dealer to schedule an appointment to have the buckle replaced or repaired, free of charge. The manufacturer is developing a remedy designed to prevent failure of the buttons that are not currently broken.

Gas fumes were getting into vehicle while driving\. Dealer was notified, and replaced one of three injectors. Currently, problem has reoccurred. Dealer contacted. Feel free to pprovide any further information.*ak

When applying brakes to stop vehicle surged forward. Immediately placed shift in neutral with foot on the brake pedal, engine with no load raced to 5000 rpm and was climbing higher until the ignition was turned to off. Restarted the engine and it immediately raced to 5000 rpm. This sequence occurred 5 times before the engine finally reset to a normal rpm start and could be driven home. Auto has experenced this problem for 2 years but can not be duplicated in the shop. The rugs were removed and the cruise control disconnected, and the computer changed but the problem was never corrected by 3 separate shops who could not duplicate the problem when the vehicle was in their possesion. Owner feels the vehicle is too dangerous to drive although it is in perfect condition otherwise. *ak

Consumers union recommended i contact you. Cam drive belt manufactured by the kelly-springfield divsion of goodyear tire and rubber, separated into shreds after 49,800 miles. Local dealer replaced belt free of charge, but claimed warranty good for only 50,000 miles. Owner's manual recommends changing every 60,000 miles. Breakage caused warped valves and gouged pistons. Submitted damage claim, #11153, to goodyear in the amount of $2,830.70. Goodyear after analyzing a couple strands, claimed the belt was not at fault. Machanic, ase certified, can not find physical evidence of any other part being at fault. I would like reimbursement for damage to vehicle, and clarification as to why a company would rate a replacement product for fewer miles than recommended in the automobile owner's manual, and not notify the repair shop or owner. I am lucky breakage did not occurred in heavy traffic! For more information please contact either myself, or endy auto repair, 1706 s. Iowa ave, joplin, mo. 64804, ph. #417-626-7755. Thank you!*ak
