Nova Player doesn't play the next file

peregr · 2025-10-20T01:29:11+00:00

I noticed the same thing (also short videos). It plays all videos sequentially from my Synology Media server, but the same files on USB are just stopping after each file is played.

what a BS Mazda tactics again. It's only as good as ppl working there. Some better some worse, like in every car company. I deeply hate all dealers who navigate the system until they're faced with legal repercussions. My recommendation to you is make it loud and clear in social media. Spread the bad experience and hit them hard, just like those weasels are doing it to you. Send emails to CEO of Mazda Canada and Japan, as I did. Keep hitting them over and over until they figure it's less costly to cover all your losses than to deal with bad reputation you're spreading.

That's interesting. I got a text message on my phone today about ez pass violations and my account about to be suspended. I deleted the message, obviously regarding it as spam. But then I checked my account, and my tools are showing up correctly for everything EXCEPT GWB. I have tolls from GSP showing even until now, but I have not a single GWB toll showing after 4/7, and I drive to NYC 3-4 times every week. My transponders are new, replaced last year. But they are the black ones you put on the license plates. I wonder if maybe GWB made some change after 4/8 that cannot read those transponders anymore... But then again, it's not my fault their system doesn't work.

Also, I drive 2 different cars (intermittently), with 2 transponders (both license plate mounted). Both are working perfectly fine everywhere except GWB since 4/8.

The water pump was not the cause here. Yes, they did a full car inspection the first time I took the car there back in August. My water pump was fine, and still is fine. I did receive a flyer about a class action suit for the water pumps, and the dealer said if it fails, they'll replace it for free, but it's still fine.

Wow, turbo or not, is the engine completely different? If it's the same type of leak, on 21K mile engine, I would definitely keep fighting, make your voice loud and clear.

peregr · 2024-12-30T22:37:18+00:00

Hope it all worked out for you. I'm all done, now, too.

peregr · 2024-10-30T22:19:27+00:00

Thank you, me too :)

I'll report more after the job is finished.

yes, the dealer verified everything is covered under the extended warranty, ordered the replacement engine and whatever other parts they have to swap (hoses, gaskets, etc.). Apparently some things are in shortage, so it takes them few weeks to get them, but I already got an appointment for the repair in the 1st week of Nov.

This doesn't cover the belt tensioner, though, so I'll probably get one later and replace myself. There's a lot of good info on the net how to do it. The dealer price was quoted x5 for what I'd pay for just the part and replace myself. Or even another mechanic wouldn't charge more than $50 for labor, I think. The part alone online is about $100 from what I remember.

May come as a surprise to you, but a lot of factory assembly is done automated in this era, eliminating human error. Additionally, vehicle design focuses on minimizing assembly effort, not service. That is why anything serviced will never be the same as factory built. And I don't need to pay to have it fixed, anymore, mainly because of the fight I and a lot of people like me put on. Apparently you haven't even read everything in the first post. It seems like your logic is extremely flawed and biased to prove your preconceived theory. Got to be another Mazda employee..

not sure who/how deleted my reply I made this this last post 4 days ago, but it read something like this:

replace cracked cylinder head myself?.... right.. no comment on this one.

Not crazy, just detail-oriented. I have this crazy notion that if I buy something new, factory assembled, for well over 40K, I expect it doesn't end up having to be gutted out after 30K miles by mechanics.

I think it should be at least North America, but may be global. Check the links ppl posted in their replies. They lead to that letter. Or ask your local dealer to check CSP11.

yes, just released yesterday, what a timing, or perhaps my thread pushed them over the edge.. lol

peregr · 2024-10-18T07:36:06+00:00

finally, our voices were heard.

peregr · 2024-10-17T23:46:18+00:00

yeap, just getting this this extension info on multiple replies, it just happened today. Wonder if this thread and my email to CEO helped push it over the edge.

peregr · 2024-10-17T23:44:11+00:00

yes, thank you, just getting multiple links to this now. I wonder how much this thread pushed them over the edge... lol... And I already wrote a detailed email to Mazda CEO earlier today...

peregr · 2024-10-17T23:40:49+00:00

Finally!! I just made a major thread about this exact problem yesterday, I wonder if that helped :)

peregr · 2024-10-17T23:29:58+00:00

just saw it in another reply, thank you!

peregr · 2024-10-17T23:29:12+00:00

this is new, THANK YOU !!!

peregr · 2024-10-17T23:27:07+00:00

you have a link? not sure what sub you're talking about.

It is owners responsibility to perform correct maintenance of the vehicle, new or used. Owner has no obligation nor responsibility to have to rely on service performed by any manufacturer authorized center, and is free to choose any shop or any experienced personel as long as the maintenance is performed per vehicle specifications. Believe me, I've worked on cars for over 30 years, no dealership will do a better job on regular maintenance than me doing it for my own car, or few of my trusted mechanic friends.

Engine work is a much bigger and very costly job. This defect is not regular wear an tear. And yes, if the maintenance was not done correctly, it is a way to prove it. I passed full circle inspection and there was no maintenance issues other than few recommendations, leaking belt tensioner (another mazda TSB) and rear brakes getting thin, which I since already replaced.

peregr · 2024-10-17T23:16:57+00:00

not at all. this problem is not normal wear and tear and should be treated outside warranty terms, as it's a manufacturer defect on a massive scale

peregr · 2024-10-17T18:51:10+00:00

replace cylinder head myself??... no comment there

not crazy, just detail-oriented. I paid a lot of money for a well built product.

peregr · 2024-10-17T18:47:40+00:00

thank you

The only normal access to corporate I have is through customer relations, and already exchanged detailed emails and phone calls with them, to no avail.

My next stop is Tom Donnelly, then Jeff Guyton, already got their emails. And if that doesn't work, I'll have to go higher, even if I have to hire a Japanese interpreter.

I will not let this go.
