whoa, that doesn't sound good. I'd recommend going down to the dealership and having them take a look at it.

It sounds like a regulator problem.

My 1950 Chevy truck has the same problem- there is a worn out roller in the regulator that I need to repair.

Yup. It's a regulator problem. Not too hard to change out in most cars. I replaced one in my Lexus.
The part cost about $120...but that was a Lexus. Mazda's probably $80.
