Description of the problem | My 1998 mazda 626 did not qualify for recall #92007, engine timing belt tensioner, due to "vehicle identification number provided does not qualify for the recall 92007. Due to the circumstances, we are closing the file (file #764436)." the spring on the timing belt tensioner broke causing the car to keep stalling. This is exactly the problem stated on recall #92007. I do not understand why mazda has refused to compensate repairs for this car.*ak |
