Mazda6 smoking @ 33,800 miles!


What is the name of your state?What is the name of your state?What is the name of your state?
I live in NJ.

In February of this year, I began financing my Mazda6 with 26,000 miles. Since then, I have visited the dealer for repairs roughly seven times. The previous repairs were all electrical—specifically the right front headlamp was inoperative and a few internal bulbs were blown. It wasn’t until yesterday that I got the biggest headache at 33,800 miles. While driving home from work, I noticed my car smoking. WTF?!
I immediately pulled over and released the hood. Under the hood, smoke had engulfed the right, back portion. Meanwhile coolant leaked streams from somewhere. The coolant reserve began bubbling up and subsiding and so the pattern continued. When roadside assistance finally came, they towed my car back to the dealership. It sat there overnight to await service today. It appears that yet another module, this time the cooling module, was not functioning. I absolutely love my car, but it has given me so many problems along the way. The smoking, however, is the only major problem.
Does the Lemon Law protect against comprehensive issues, or just one persisting problem? In either case, what is the compensation?

Lemon laws do not apply to used vehicles. And if they did, as long as the repairs are being made, you cannot make a lemon law claim.
