Consumer Description

ON 8/5/16 THE VEHICLE WAS BOUGHT INTO A MAZDA DEALER FOR A GASOLINE ODOR & ENGINE CODE # PO455. IT WAS DETERMINED THAT A SPLIT FUEL PUMP RETAINING ALLOWED THE FUEL PUMP TO SEPARATE FROM THE FUEL TANK CAUSING GASOLINE TO LEAK. FORTUNATELY THE VEHICLE DID NOT CATCH ON FIRE. THANK GOODNESS. I MAY NOT HAVE HAD A SON TODAY. THE REPAIR CAME TO OVER $500.00. MAZDA DOES NOT FEEL OBLIGATED TO COVER THE FULL COST. IN MY OPINION THIS IS NOT A MAINTENANCE ITEM BUT A DEFINITE SAFETY DEFECT.
