Consumer Description

AFTER BRINGING TO MAZDA FOR TAKATA INFLATOR RECALL, AND LOWER ROCKER ARMS RECALL, I WAS TOLD MY TIMING CHAIN SHOULD BE REPLACED AT A COST OF $1300 PLUS TAX!!! A MAZDA TECH. SAID HE KNEW FOR SURE THAT WAS THE ISSUE JUST FROM LISTENING TO THE NOISE. MY HOW KNOWLEDGEABLE FOR A GUESS. I STARTED RESEARCHING THIS, AND SEE THAT A CLASS ACTION SUIT WAS FILED IN 2012 REGARDING THIS ISSUE, AND IT WENT NO FURTHER. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF I CAN GET FURTHER INFORMATION REGARDING THIS ISSUE AND IF MAZDA WILL PICK UP THIS BILL. I SEE A HUGE AMOUNT OF FOLKS HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND THE VVT ALSO, AND MAZDA HAS DONE NOTHING. I WOULD LIKE TO PURSUE THIS ISSUE FURTHER. CAN YOU HELP, OR DIRECT ME ON HOW TO DO SO? I HAVE TAKEN VERY GOOD CARE OF THIS VEHICLE THAT I HAVE HAD FROM NEW AND NOW ALL OF A SUDDEN IT NEEDS A $1300 PLUS REPAIR? I AM DISSAPIONTED IN MAZDA AFTER READING THE COMPLAINTS, THE DANGER THIS ISSUE COULD CAUSE, AND THE FACT THEY DONT CARE.
