SO MY A.C. DECIDES TO GO OUT THE OTHER DAY WHILE ON THE WAY TO CLASS (ON THE INTERSTATE ) AND I START TO SMELL SOMETHING BURNING, THEN TO MAKE MATTERS WORSE SMOKE STARTS COMING FROM THE VENTS!! I IMMEDIATELY PULL OVER AND HAD TO GET IT TOWED ! TOOK IT TO REPAIR SHOP TO BE LOOKED AT AND LEARNED THAT THIS IS A CONSTANT PROBLEM WITH THESE VEHICLES! APPARENTLY THIS IS WELL KNOWN AND THERE IS SOME SORT OF MALFUNCTION AND PEOPLE ARE PAYING THE PRICE BIG TIME FOR IT. I DO NOT THINK THIS IS RIGHT. I GOT THIS VEHICLE A MONTH AGO TO GET ME TO SCHOOL AND TO GET ME AND MY 3 YEAR OLD AROUND. I DO NOT HAVE 2K LAYING AROUND TO GET IT FIXED.

BOUGHT MY MAZDA CX-7 2007 BRAND NEW. AC BROKE, ARM JOINT HAS BE CHANGE, BOTH ROLLER CHANGED MORE THEN TWO TIMES. ENGINE IS MAKING NOISE. DEALER TOLD US THAT IT'S THE TIMING CHAIN WHICH IS THE ENGINE NOW. I CALLED MAZDA FOR AN ENGINE AND IT'S ABOUT $6,291 FOR JUST THE ENGINE NOT EVEN INCLUDED THE LABOR. HAD A VERY BAD EXPLERIENCE WITH MAZDA.

FROM MAZDA'S RECALL NOTICE, "THE BALL JOINT AND LOWER CONTROL ARM MAY SEPARATE, CAUSING A LOSS OF STEERING CONTROL AND INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH." SO ALMOST A YEAR AND NOTHING....RECALL STILL "REMEDY NOT AVAILABLE"????? WHAT ARE THEY WAITING ON? SEEMS EXTREMELY IRRESPONSIBLE/GREEDY (DO NOT WANT TO INCUR THE COST)

ON THE 4TH OF JULY MY FAMILY AND I WERE DRIVING TO WESTCHESTER FROM MANHATTAN. WE HAD A FULL TANK OF GAS, RECENT OIL CHANGE AND NEW CAR BATTERY. THE CAR IS ALWAYS MAINTAINED AND IT HAS NEVER GIVEN US ANY TROUBLE. DURING OUR DRIVE WE NOTICED SOMETHING WAS WRONG. THE THE CAR STARTED TO FEEL HOT, BUT WE WEREN'T TOO SURE IF IT'S JUST HOT OUT OR IF THERE WAS SOMETHING WRONG, BECAUSE THE AC WAS ON. WE PULLED OVER AND TURNED THE CAR OFF. WE CHECKED THE COOLANT AND SAW THAT WE HAD OIL. WE OPENED THE TRUNK, FELT AROUND TO SEE IF IT WAS HOT AND TO SEE IF WE SMELL ANYTHING. IT SEEMED FINE. AS SOON AS WE DROVE OFF, NOT 2 MINUTES IN, WHEN DRIVER SAID THE GAS PETAL FELT WEIRD, IT DROPPED FROM 50 TO 30 TO 20MPH AND WE HEARD A LIGHT DRILLING NOISE. AS SOON AS WE STEPPED OUT OF THE CAR, IT WAS IN FLAMES. OUR FAMILY COULD HAVE DIED. HTTPS://WWW.FACEBOOK.COM/VALHALLAFD/POSTS/1548408978544577
