Mazda Mazda3 Power Train Safety Report | Oct 25, 2013
Reported on Oct 25, 2013
| I HAVE A '12 MAZDA MAZDA3 ITOURING HATCHBACK W/2.0L SKYACTIV I-4 (BL GENERATION) WITH SKYACTIV 6MT. WHEN STARTING OFF FROM A STOP IN 1ST GEAR AND SHIFTING INTO 2ND GEAR (CLUTCH PEDAL COMPLETELY DEPRESSED BEFORE SHIFTER WAS PULLED OUT OF 1ST, NO GAS PEDAL WAS APPLIED) TRANSMISSION WOULD GRIND WHEN SHIFTER IS BEING PULLED INTO 2ND GEAR. GRIND CAN BE HEARD INSIDE AND OUTSIDE, AND CAN BE FELT IN SHIFTER. GRIND WOULD CONTINUE FOR LESS THAN A SECOND THEN WOULD POP FULLY INTO 2ND GEAR. ALONG WITH ISSUE, WHENEVER GRIND DOES NOT OCCUR, SHIFTING INTO 2ND GEAR REQUIRES SIGNIFICANTLY MORE FORCE TO FULLY ENGAGE COMPARED TO REVERSE, 1ST, 3RD, 4TH, 5TH AND 6TH GEARS. MAZDA DEALERSHIP COULD NOT DUPLICATE SYMPTOM, THEREFORE DECLARING AN NPF OR NO PROBLEM FOUND. *TR | |
