Consumer Description

I WRITE TO EXPRESS MY DISAPPOINTMENT AT THE QUALITY OF VEHICLES MAZDA IS PUTTING OUT, AND THE LACK OF RESPONSE MAZDA'S CUSTOMER SERVICE DEPARTMENT OFFERS ITS CUSTOMERS. IN 2008 I BOUGHT A 2008 MAZDA CX7 AND THIS CAR HAS GIVEN ME NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS. FROM THE FAULTY WIRING THAT ALWAYS BLOWS OUT THE HEADLIGHTS, TO THE POWER WINDOWS WHICH SOMETIMES TURN OFF AND TURN ON, TO THE EXHAUST FUMES THAT CAN BE SMELT INSIDE THE CAR, I'VE COMPLAINED ABOUT ALL OF IT AND SPENT COUNTLESS RESOURCES AND TIME TRYING TO FIX IT ALL. THE LAST STRAW CAME ABOUT A MONTH AGO WHEN I WAS INFORMED THAT MY VVT ADJUSTER AND CHAIN WERE OUT, THE TURBO WAS OUT AND THE ENGINE WAS FAILING AND IT WOULD COST ME CLOSE TO $4,000 TO REPAIR IT. WE'RE TALKING ABOUT A CAR WITH ONLY 75,000 MILES. ACCORDING TO MY MECHANIC AND ACCORDING TO EDMUNDS.COM REVIEWS THESE ARE ALL COMMON CX-7 PROBLEMS AND MAZDA JUST WON'T OWN UP TO THEM. *TR
