Consumer Description

2007 MAZDA CX-7 - A/C COMPRESSOR WENT OUT (MILEAGE 43,090 AND OUT OF WARRANTY) ON WAY TO WORK ON 1/4/11 AROUND 7:30AM. MY CAR STARTED MAKING LOUD NOISES FROM THE ENGINE THE DAY BEFORE BUT THEIR WERE NO WARNING SIGNS IN MY CAR. ON MY WAY TO WORK A LOT OF WHITE SMOKE FROM MY TALE PIPES STARTED COMING OUT AND THE NOISE GOT LOUDER ALONG WITH A BURNING SMELL AND THEN MY BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON AND MY CAR CUT OFF WHILE I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY. I WAS LUCKY TO COAST OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. $1250 TO REPLACE PARTS/TOW AND LABOR. SEEMS THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH MAZDA BECAUSE I HAVE BEEN ON A LOT OF FORUMS WHERE TONS OF PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. MAZDA ON RT. 42 SOUTH JERSEY NJ DIDN'T MENTION THIS WAS A KNOWN ISSUE. MANY CUSTOMERS HAVE HAD THIS HAPPEN MULTIPLE TIMES. SOME WITHIN THE 36K BTB WARRANTY, SOME AFTER. WITH THIS BEING A KNOWN ISSUE, SHOULDN'T THIS BE A RECALL IF IT IS A PROBLEM THAT WILL OCCUR ON MOST 2007 CX-7'S WITH THE PART? *TR
