Consumer Description

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT DUE TO THE EGR VALVE = EXHAUST GAS RECIRCULATION VALVE BEING STUCK IN THE OPEN POSITION WITH 51K MILES. THE DEALERSHIP REPLACED THE VALVE (PART NUMBER L3K9-20-300A) AND THE GASKET (PART NUMBER LF6T-20-305) FOR $882.63 BEING THAT IT WAS NOT COVERED UNDER MY CERTIFIED PRE OWNED WARRANTY OR MY EXTENDED WARRANTY SINCE IT IS PART OF THE EMISSIONS PACKAGE I PAID, IN FULL, OUT OF POCKET. I HAVE CHECKED SEVERAL ONLINE FORUMS AND HAVE SEEN THIS IS A COMMON OCCURRENCE FOR 2007 CX7 BETWEEN 25K AND 55K MILES. I THINK THIS IS A MUCH LARGER PROBLEM THAN REGULAR WEAR AND TEAR REQUIRING AN INVESTIGATION. *TR
