I HAVE HAD MY AIRBAG LIGHT ON MY DASHBOARD TURN ON. THIS IS THE THIRD TIME IT DOES THAT. I'M SCARED IT'S GOING TO EXPLODE ON ME WHEN I'M DRIVING. PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF THERE'S A RECALL FOR THE CAR I HAVE. DRIVING WITH A SCARE FEELING IS NOT GOOD.

THE AIRBAG SENSOR IN MY VEHICLE WHEN OFF ONE DAY. I HAVE NOT BEEN AN ANY ACCIDENTS THAT WOULD HAVE TRIGGERED THE AIRBAG. I HAS CONTINUED TO GO OFF AND ON AND IT DOESN'T MATER IF I AM PARKED OR IN MOTION. I HAVE TAKEN TO DEALERSHIP AND OTHER MECHANICS (FOR SECOND OPINION) AND THEY BOTH STATED THAT THE AIRBAG SYSTEM IS DEFECTIVE AND WILL NOT WORK PROPERLY IN AN ACCIDENT. I HAVE CHECKED FOR RECALLS AND HAVE FOUND NON. BUT I HAVE FOUND MANY OTHER MAZDA5 2010 OWNERS WHO ARE HAVING THE SAME EXACT PROBLEM WITH THEIR AIR BAGS. I WOULD LIKE FOR SOMEONE TO INVESTIGATE THIS AND ADD IT TO A RECALL, BEFORE SOMEONE IN MY FAMILY IS KILLED OR INJURED IN AN ACCIDENT.

MAYBE TAKATA RECALL - OUR MAZDA 5 WAS PARKED IN THE DRIVEWAY OVERNIGHT ON MARCH 12. WE WENT TO DRIVE THE CAR AND FOUND THE ENTIRE INTERIOR OF THE CAR WAS COVERED IN A FINE POWDER. THE GLOVE BOX WAS OPEN. WE CONCLUDED THAT THE INFLATOR FROM THE FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG POSITION HAD GONE OFF ON ITS OWN. THE AIRBAG ITSELF DID NOT DEPLOY. WE THEN DROVE THE VEHICLE TO THE MAZDA DEALERSHIP FOR SERVICE, (ABOUT 1 MILE).

I WAS DRIVING HOME AFTER DROPPING MY THREE CHILDREN OFF AT SCHOOL. THE ROAD THAT I LIVE ON IS WOODLAKE PKWY AND THE SPEED LIMIT IS FOURTY-FIVE MPH. A LADY IN A CAR PULLED OUT IN FRONT OF ME FROM A SUBDIVISION ON MY RIGHT, SHE WAS HEADED IN MY OPPOSITE DIRECTION. I HIT HER AS I ATTEMPTED TO SWERVE AND MISS HER ONLY PROJECTING ME FURTHER AND FASTER TO MY LEFT WHERE THERE WERE TWO SETS OF TREES AND BUSHES. AFTER THE INITIAL COLLISION I THEN FOUGHT MY WAY THROUGH TREES REALIZING I HAD NO BRAKES I SLAMMED DOWN THE BRAKES AND LANDED ON SOME TREE STUBS 150 FT AWAY FROM THE CRASH SITE. MY AIRBAGS NEVER DEPLOYED. *TR
