Consumer Description

HAVE A 2007 MAZDA SPEED 3 WITH 4224 MILES 4 MONTHS OF OWNERSHIP. REPORTED A STRANGE POPPING SOUND TO THE DEALER ON SATURDAY AND WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS NOT NORMAL , AND TO DROP OFF THE CAR AT THE EARLIEST CONVENIENCE. WHILE DRIVING TO A FRIEND'S HOUSE I TURNED LEFT ON A STREET AND ACCELERATED ONCE INTO 2ND GEAR. I ACCELLERATED SOME MORE AND HEARD A LOUD BANG, AND THEN SEVERAL SEQUENTIAL POPS AND NOISES. I POPPED THE HOOD TO SEE THAT THE DRIVER'S SIDE OF THE MOTOR HAD FALLEN DOWN. SO FAR THE DEALER NOTED THAT IT WAS A MOTOR MOUNT/BOLT FAILURE , AND THE ESTIMATE WAS STILL TO COME ON HOW MUCH TO FIX THE CAR. *AK
