Mazda Mazda6 2002 Power Train Clutch Assembly Review #10125432

MAZDA MAZDA6 2002 car safety problem was reported on June 07, 2002.MAZDA MAZDA6 2002, manufactured by MAZDA (NORTH AMERICA), INC. had a problem with POWER TRAIN:CLUTCH ASSEMBLY . mazda motors co. has a known problem with the clutch in 2001-2003 mazda miatas and has issued a tsb (05-001/03). my miata, a 2002 is 3 months out of warranty, but with only 13,000 miles of a warranted 36,000 miles. when i approached mazda corp. with my problem i was summarilly told, without them looking at my car, that it was out of warranty and also stated that, even in a warranted state, the clutch will be covered for only 12,000 miles. i have read the tsb and nowhere is a mileage number stated for a covered repair. my complaint is, that there is a known problem and owners are not made aware of that problem or the repair that is recommended by the manufacturer.i was unaware of it until reading what other miata owners had written in a miata forum.granted, this is not a safety problem but it does affect the operation of the vehicle and if the manufacturer is aware of it and corrects it when confronted then the warranty time limit alone should not be a determining factor in whether or not a correction of the problem is made. the repair should be made when the customer makes the complaint rergardless of the time factor involved as long as the mileage falls within the warranted period.many of the other owners with the same problem did not report onset of the problem until they had driven the car for 15,000 to 25,000 miles. they experienced the problem within the 36 months of the warranty but with greater mileage. i have less mileage on the car but with a longer period of time. either way the problem develops within a certain period of "operation" of the vehicle. should you have any questions of me do not hesitate to contact me at the e-mail, phone or address that i have given. thank you..Mileage was 13000 miles.

MAZDA MAZDA6 2002 car safety problem was reported on Nov 17, 2005.MAZDA MAZDA6 2002, manufactured by MAZDA (NORTH AMERICA), INC. had a problem with ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:EXHAUST SYSTEM:MANIFOLD/HEADER/MUFFLER/TAIL PIPE . on cold starts there is a loud ticking sound from the front of the engine. once engine warms up the ticking goes away. we brought our 2002 mazda mpv to a local certified mechanic and he diagnosed a cracked front exhaust manifold. we called customer service at mazda to report this problem and per mazda since we exceeded our warranty by 5 months it will not be covered. after asking us about our repair and maintenance history with mazda we reported having automatic transmission service done, brake service, and coolant flush service done at the dealership. the gentleman at mazda asked us to hold so he could talk to the supervisor. when he returned he asked about the oil changes. i stated that i do those every 3,000 miles. after putting me on hold again, he stated that he could not help us after all. when we bought the van i asked if i could do my own maintenance and would it void any warranty problems and the salesman said "no". i went to another mechanic who specializes in exhaust and emission systems. i explained the situation to him and he said he would look into for us. he called back 3 days later and stated that there seems to be several complaints about the same situation we are having. in doing a national parts search at all national salvage yards to find an exhaust manifold for the van he found one in florida, but it also had a crack in it and was told that they have had numerous inquiries about the same exhaust manifold part. we took it upon ourselves to do research on the internet about this problem and was surprised to find numerous complaints of cracked exhaust manifolds on mazda mpv's. we were quoted over $1,000 to fix this problem, but we feel after consulting with several mechanics this problem should never occurred and the exhaust manifold on these engines are most likely defective from the manufacturer. what is our next step? better business bureau?? *nm.Mileage was 47800 miles.
