Consumer Description

SMOKE AND RATTLING AND LOW OIL PROMPTED ME TO MAKE AN APT AT MY LOCAL MAZDA DEALER ONLY TO FIND THAT MY TURBO HAS BLOWN AND MY VVT VALVE AND TIMING CHAIN. (THE TRUCK IS A 2007) I WAS TOLD THAT I SHOULD NOT DRIVE THE TRUCK AS IT WOULD BE A SAFETY ISSUE WITH 2 KIDS. SO AFTER MY QUOTE OF 7000.00 TO FIX THE TRUCK I THOUGHT I WOULD DO SOME RESEARCH ONLINE ONLY TO FIND THAT THERE ARE AS MANY AS 50 PEOPLE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM IN THE SAME TRUCK WITH THE SAME YEAR~!! WHY WONT MAZDA STAND BEHIND THERE PRODUCT AND PUT OUT A SAFETY RECALL ON THIS ISSUE? I WAS TOLD TO FIND THIS SITE AND LODGE MY COMPLAINT. HOPE THIS WILL DO SOME GOOD !! *TR
