Answer 1

check condition of battery and cables

Answer 2

Check your battery cables.chances are they are loose. also your alternator could be going out.if you do it yourself it wont cost much.also check your sparkplugs.

Answer 3

Take it in NOW and have it diagnosed. Thats a safety issue, if you lose power in traffic that could cause a traffic accident. Please be careful and please bring it in ASAFP.

Mazdas in general have gotten better over the years, I'll admit to liking the new MPV's when they were released, but the older mpv's were really crappy with the v6, and the auto trans and especially the 4x4 ones.
