HAVING NOTICED A SLIGHT TICKING NOISE ALREADY, WE IMMEDIATELY TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE IT WAS PURCHASED. THEY EXAMINED IT AND NOTIFIED US THAT EVEN THOUGH OUR CAR WAS 5 YEARS OLD AND AT RISK OF FAILURE DUE TO A FACTORY DEFECTIVE PART, THE WARRANTY WAS ONLY EXTENDED TO 70,000 MILES AND MAZDA WOULD NOT COVER ANY COSTS SINCE OUR ODOMETER WAS AT 80,000. I WENT HOME, DID SOME ONLINE RESEARCH, AND DISCOVERED THAT OUR YEAR AND MAKE OF VEHICLE ALSO HAD A TSB FROM MAZDA FOR A DEFECTIVE TIMING VVT ACTUATOR THAT COULD CAUSE THE SAME CLICKING SOUND. WE HAD NEVER BEEN NOTIFIED OF THIS BY MAZDA OR THE DEALERSHIP. I CALLED MAZDA CUSTOMER CARE IMMEDIATELY AND THEY ASSURED ME THAT THE TIMING CHAIN WAS THE SOURCE OF THE CLICKING NOISE. TWO WEEKS LATER THE VVT ACTUATOR IN QUESTION DID FAIL. MAZDA ASSUMED LIABILITY AND REPLACED THE DEFECTIVE VVT ASSEMBLY AND TIMING CHAIN, BUT REFUSE TO COVER ANY OF THE COSTS TO REPAIR THE SEVERE DAMAGE CAUSED TO OUR ENGINE AS THE DIRECT RESULT OF THIS PART FAILURE.  *TR","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2007","productMake":"MAZDA","productModel":"CX-7","manufacturer":"Mazda Motor Corp."}]}]}
