Consumer Description

DRIVING ON MY WAY TO TENNESSEE, THE CAR HAD A MAJOR POWER LOSS AND SCREECHING NOISE FROM INSIDE THE ENGINE BAY. THE CAR WAS TAKEN TO THE CLOSEST MAZDA DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THAT THE TURBO HAD TO BE REPLACED DUE TO ENGINE SLUDGE. THE CAR HAD REGULAR OIL CHANGES USING THE PROPER AMOUNT AND OIL WEIGHT. MAZDA HAD A RECALL INVOLVING THE TURBO AND THEY DID NOT HONOR IT BECAUSE I WAS ABOUT 1000 MILES OVER THE EXTENDED WARRANTY. *TR
