      My Mazda has been awaiting repairs at a local repair shop since 1/17/2022. Mazda has failed to deliver the parts needed and it has already been 4 months. They have also failed to ever provide an ETA for parts. I am forced to pay thousands of dollars for a rental vehicle because Mazda refused to provide me with a loaner vehicle as my car is at a shop and not the local dealer.I opened a case directly with Mazda customer service on 3/31/2022 and they have put forth no effort to find a resolution and get parts delivered. I asked for my case to be escalated and I asked, multiple times, to speak with a supervisor and I have never been contacted by a supervisor. Mazda has not displayed any customer service. They have delayed my repairs to the extreme and they have provided zero support throughout the process. There is seemingly no end in sight. They have held my car hostage for 4 months and they don't care at all. I want Mazda to provide me with a loaner vehicle asap because the only relevant factor is that Mazda is delaying the repair process. I warn everyone I know to never deal with Mazda.

      BBB Complaint ID#:XXXXXXXX
      ****** ********
      Mazda Account#:XXXXXXXXXX

      This is a response to the complaint filed by ****** ******** against Mazda Financial Services (MFS). We appreciate the opportunity to address her concerns regarding a recent repossession on her vehicle.

      First and foremost, we apologize to Ms. ******** for the negative customer experience she endured while attempting to gain assistance from one of our team members and resolve her account from further repossession activity. We value and appreciate Ms. ********'s business with MFS and it's our goal to provide each customer with courteous and professional service at all times.

      After reviewing Ms. ********'s account in detail, our records reflect her payment in the amount of $686.86, remitted on April 29, 2022, was returned unpaid and subsequently reversed from the account. We were notified of the reversal on May 10, 2022, which resulted in a past due account status and collection activity on her account. We confirmed that several attempts were made to contact Ms. ******** via telephone calls, along with cure notices being mailed to her address on file to prevent further collection activity, such as repossession. According to Ms. ********'s June monthly statement, it reflected she had a past due balance of $2,734.30 due immediately before the July 2022 payment became due. Due to Ms. ******** not remitting any of the past due amount, repossession of the vehicle was approved on June 14, 2022. Ms. ******** was mailed a Notice of Right to Reinstate Lease document on May 24, 2022 stating the full amount of $1,404.84 is required. We later received Ms. ********'s remitted payment of $1,250.00, which was applied to her account on July 1, 2022; however, this payment did not fully meet the requirement to reinstate her account. Since Ms. ******** did not meet the full payment and another monthly payment of $686.86 became due for July2022, this resulted in another repossession order to be placed on July 8, 2022 to recover her vehicle. We confirmed the assigned third-party recovery agency, United Recovery and Marketing, recovered Ms. ********'s vehicle and took the vehicle to the address below:

      Finest Towing & Auto Body Staten Island NY
      3857 Victory Blvd
      Staten Island, NY XXXXX
      Phone#: XXX-XXX-XXXX

      Following the repossession, we mailed Ms. ******** a Notice of our Plan to Sell Property on July 12, 2022, informing her of options to reinstate or redeem her vehicle. The notice also provided instructions to reclaim any personal property directly from the repossession agent, before the vehicle sells at auction. We have attached a copy of Ms. ********'s notice, for her records. We want to inform Ms. ******** if her vehicle is transferred to the auto auction, the personal belongings will remain at the lot for 30 days only. We ask that she contacts the recovery agents directly and schedule an appointment to retrieve her personal belongings.

      Our records do not reflect that the repossession of Ms. ********'s vehicle was improper or due to an MFS error. If Ms. ******** should have any further questions, she may contact our Reinstatement and Redemption Group directly at X-XXX-XXX-XXXX.
