#151 of 155 Re: 2010 Mazda3 Ambient Air Sensor [allycat1236] by jbbevel Jul 16, 2009 (11:25 am)
Replying to: allycat1236 (Jul 14, 2009 2:38 pm) Wow.. not sure how you figured allt he 20mph for 90 second thing... but yes.... I have a problem my my Ambient Temp Gauge too.   If my car sits in the sun for a long time...it will read 70+ degrees... (when it's 95-100 degrees outside). Then it takes about 20minutes or so for it to actually read correctly. It's kind of a pain.. but not a real big issue imo. Replies to this message: allycat1236 (Jul 24, 2009 6:19 am)

I am having a problem with my ambient outside temperature reading. Seems like it takes forever to respond to a temp change. the gauge is in the dashboard, not the mirror. Some times after a ten minute drive, the temperature does not move at all.

You will need your VIN # and complain. If enough people complain then they will consider a voluntary recall to install a newly designed sensor.

Replying to: tj6968 (Sep 10, 2009 12:00 pm) I purchased the 2010 Mazda 3 about 6 months ago. I too have been experienced the inaccuracies of the climate control. I've had the temperature sensor changed out once and the new one works worse than the first one. I live in CA and for the past week we have been experiencing temps. of over 100 degrees; the temperature on my display has never read over 70 degrees. As stated above, the temp. will decrease if needed, but will not climb as quickly as it drops. I've called the dealership and complained, their only recommendation is to drop my car off for several days so they can test it themselves, but refuse to provide me with alternate transportation. The dealerships have also been given specific instructions from Mazda to NOT replace the temp. sensor, as this is the way it is suppose to work. I find it hard to believe that you need to drive your car for over an hour in order to get a true temperature reading. I will call Mazda AGAIN and complain, but don't think anything will be resolved.
