Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: My mazda3 is 4 months old and i have been towed 2 times in the last 3 days. both times the check engine light went on first, then the engine started running rough and then i lost acceleration power and could only go a few miles an hour to pull over. the second time it happened was within 2 miles of the dealership after i had picked it up from "getting fixed"--the throttle body was replaced. now they are telling me it was because i was "low on gas" (under 1/4 tank). prior to this i was having hesitations at 30 miles an hour--most noticable when engine was cold. the dealer could never notice the problem despite my bringing it for service 2 times. ? if the problems are all related or not.*ak
