Last week I traveled from San Antonio, TX to Colmar, PA. I purchased a 2016 CX9 Signature, it has a brand new engine installed by the Mazda dealership and is suppose to have a 12 month 12,000 miles nationwide warranty through Mazda. I drove the car back with no problems. I got home Saturday. Left it in the garage Sunday and went to drive it on Monday morning. That's when I got a check engine light. The car was hesitating when I pushed the gas. I went directly to Mazda because I had already had an appointment to get Andriod Auto installed. After them checking it out they said it was a MAS Air Flow censor. They claim it wasn't covered under the engine warranty and charged almost $500 to change. I wasn't happy about this but the dealer in PA said they would reimburse me. BUT after I paid the gouging price for the repair I drove off only to find the vehicle still doing something (maybe worse) just no check engine light. So I took it back now there saying it's something to do with the MAP and MAT sensor and some wiring harness needs to be clean. They ask if I have a warranty, I said "no" because this vehicle has a BRAND NEW ENGINE. Now there trying to take to Mazda Dealer in PA and Mazda corporate.
What should I do if they make me pay? Do you think it's a Lemon? Do you believe these sensors should be covered under the new engine warranty? I like the vehicle but can I trust it or should I trade it in and pay the loss? What do you think is going to happen and how should I handle this? Thanks!
