Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING MY 2007 MAZDA CX7 WITH CIRCULATING FAN ON SUDDENLY HEARD A GRINDING NOISE AND HAD A LOT OF WHITE SMOKE COMING FROM UNDER RIGHT FRONT HOOD. THERE WEREN'T ANY WARNING LIGHTS ON MY DASH & THE TEMP GAUGE READ NORMAL. CAR HAS 43,000 MILES ON IT AND WAS AT DEALER PREVIOUS WEEK FOR ROUTINE OIL CHANGE. LOCAL MAZDA DEALER ADVISED A/C COMPRESSOR, DRYER, EXPANSION VALVE, PAG OIL & FREON ARE ALL NEEDED FOR $1,400 AND IT WOULD TAKE A 1/2 DAY TO REPAIR ONCE THEY HAD THE PARTS. THIS IS A KNOWN DEFECT AND MAZDA SHOULD COVER WITH A RECALL. *TR
