Well my car still has the old program, and I have not had powerloss yet, but I will agree sometimes the power feels a little inconsistent, but I am hesitant to do the reflash as when the car is having its good days, its REALLY having its good days...

Anyways, all this RECALL talk, and I have not recieved a letter or heard anything from Mazda, where as other owners have reported getting letters in the mail...

Anyone else not hear anything???

Thanks....

I have not received one yet, however it is a new purchase. I bought it On July 29th, perhaps the letters went out before that.

Anyway I can tell if they did the reflash at the dealership before selling it to me?

 

[Wiggum]

Mine is an older purchase, from Feb. .....

You should have a sticker on your door if the reflash/recall was done...

 

[LapisLove]

I haven't heard anything from Mazda either, but mine is also a new purchase (7/24).

I thought it was only car mfg in a time frame not sure what that timeframe is though.

I did not recieve the recall letter and am starting to get aggrivated. I had the powerloss when i first got the car. then it didnt happen again. Well the last few days i have been having the powerloss like crazy. My dealer wants my car for a whole day day to do a 15 minute reflash. I cant afford to give my car for a day unless im getting another car in return. Even then im skeptical about givig up my car for a day. Ive seen some dealers do some crazy shit with customer's cars.

I got my letter last week and had my MS6 since first week of December...I'll get it done on my next oil change (should be next week or maybe this weekend)

I've had my ms6 since Nov and from what I've seen, the rest of the Canadians on this board havent gotten a recall letter. I did however go in and just get them to do the update for me anyways.

Ls1gto got his ms6 dynoed with the flash. Looks healthy to me. 300 crank hp. I got the flash few weeks ago and very happy with it, its seems smoother and power is still there.

IIRC the recall specifically mentions cars up until April/04 mf date. Not sure why that's the cutoff since the newest flash came out in August?

Wig: Do you need the letter for something? I'll send you mine.

Bob: In April the update was intigrated into the new cars being built.

August was just the recall month, the flash has been available for months.

 

[Wiggum]

No, don't need a letter, just wondering why I didn't get one....

It may very well be that your car does not have the problematic flash. I think Mazda is being a little vauge on this recall as to whom is really effects. I received the notice for my car, but when I took it to the dealer, they said it had the correct flash already. My car runs on 91 only, has never had power loss, and I beat on the car in 100° weather all the time. The power is also very consistant in hot or cold weather, leading me to believe I do have the correct flash. BTW my car has a 10/2005 build date.

I bought mine at the end of July. I have not received the letter. I have not felt power loss, but keep in mind I am taking it easy. I only have 650 miles on the car.

 

[WhightLightn]

Not yet, but I've only had the car like 3 weeks, so.....

 

[madcar]

I'm in Canada - no power loss, no recall letter, and no sticker indicating any flash - build date 04/06. And I run 91 oct only...

 

[dj petey]

No letter, no power loss, bought in April but i think build date was earlier.

 

[MLuddyJr]

No letter yet as I just got mine two weeks ago to the day. Build date is 4/06, experienced powerloss for the 1st time yesterday with ~2k on the clock while running 93 octane.
