My mazda V was making some noise in the front end going over big bumps (usually speedbumps) last winter. According to mazda my warranty is till Dec 1st. (extended from the exhaust recall). I took my car in August and they couldn't reproduce the noise. I took it back again on Dec 6th, and I sat in on the test drive with the mechanic and managed to produce the noise.
Mazda dealership originally offered to pay for parts (shocks) and I pay for labor ($350), and of course I refused. They are checking with management and Mazda Canada to see if anything could be done.
My question is wouldn't Mazda or Dealership have to do something since I brought the car in much before the warranty ran out? Basically I might be penalized for their mechanic unable to reproduce the problem. The service guy I have been dealing with called me to find out where i have been taking the car to be serviced. Guess they want to know if I have been giving them profit for their overpriced service and then maybe they will do something if Mazda Canada don't.
Cheers.
