Mazda Rx-8 2008 Power Train Review #10483668

MAZDA RX-8 2008 car safety problem was reported on Oct 29, 2012.MAZDA RX-8 2008, manufactured by MAZDA MOTOR CORP had a problem with POWER TRAIN . i was driving to work and as i was shifting gears i felt the car did not have any acceleration. the top speed i got to was 55mph. when i was about to get off the car, i saw smoke coming from under the hood and from inside where the shift know is located. i checked under the car for a possibly fire, and there it was. apparently the catalytic converter had clogged up and that's what started the fire. its not safe to drive around with a car that barely has 55,000 and already has problems like a fire. what if i the car caught in fire with my family inside. cant imagine. i called an agency that told me the car had a safety recall, and had asked me if the dealer had provided with an inspection sticker which was not in the windshield. i wish i could have my down payment i gave back because i would not feel secure and safe driving a car (with my child and wife) with a car that turned on fire. *tr.Vehicle was on fire. 0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 55000 miles.

Mazda Rx-8 2008 Steering Review #10493657

MAZDA RX-8 2008 car safety problem was reported on Jan 19, 2013.MAZDA RX-8 2008, manufactured by MAZDA MOTOR CORP had a problem with STEERING . i was driving home on the highway and the car started to intermittently pull slightly in one direction. after about 10 minutes of this, the power steering failure light came on and my power steering was gone as i was doing 65mph on the highway. as i continued to drive, the car would randomly start to pull to one direction. it was very scary and unsafe. i lowered my speed to the minimum of 55mph (in indiana, the 45mph in illinois) and still had the same issues for the rest of the drive. i did some research and this problem is fairly common in the rx-8s. this is extremely unsafe and should be fixed by the manufacturer. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 40000 miles. Mazda Rx-8 2008 problem was reported in VERNON HILLS, IL. Vehicle was not using ANTI-LOCK BRAKES. Vehicle was not using Cruise Control. VEHICLE SPEED: 65 mph.
