VVT Timing Chain Issue?
houstongfamily, 03/19/2012
2007 Mazda CX-7 Sport 4dr SUV (2.3L 4cyl Turbo 6A)
I was driving my Mazda CX-7 on the highway at 65 mph when my car made a loud noise from the engine and had a loss in power.
I towed the car to a Mazda dealer where the technician that inspected my car stated the timing chain was missing a pin and caused the engine to break.
Therefore my engine needed to be replaced.
I replaced my engine at 72K miles which is slightly over the 70K mile … service notice that Mazda recently put out for reimbursement from repairs related to the VVT Timing Chain.
I hired a lawyer to pursue reimbursement of my engine replacement cost and would like to know if there are more cases of engine failure or repairs around/above 70K miles due to the timing chain.
