Consumer Description

MY CX-7 HAD BEEN MAKING SOME ENGINE NOISE FOR MONTHS THAT MY HUSBAND ATTRIBUTED TO FUEL INJECTOR NOISE, BUT WHEN THE SOUND GOT WORSE HE RESEARCHED IT AND MADE AN APPOINTMENT WITH A MAZDA DEALERSHIP. AFTER AN EVALUATION OF MY CAR THE SERVICEMAN TOLD ME THAT THERE HAD BEEN A DEFECT IN THE ENGINES IN 2007 CX-7 AND THERE HAD BEEN A RECALL ON THEM AND THAT MINE WAS PAST THE POINT OF BEING FIXED. HE SAID THAT IT WILL JUST QUIT WORKING ONE DAY. WE ASKED IF WE COULD HAVE ANOTHER ENGINE PUT IN, BUT HE SAID THE PROBLEM HAS NEVER BEEN FIXED, SO IT WOULD ONLY BE GOOD TEMPORARILY AND IT WOULD COST $5,500. WE STATED THAT WE NEVER RECEIVED RECALL INFORMATION AND AFTER HE RAN OUR VIN NUMBER HE SAID THAT WE HAD NEVER BEEN SENT ANY RECALL INFORMATION. THEY WOULD ONLY GIVE ME $3,000 FOR MY CAR BECAUSE IT IS WORTHLESS NOW, SO I INTEND TO DRIVE IT UNTIL IT DIES WHICH COULD BE ANY DAY. *TR
