Mazdaspeed 3 Recall!

[Ms3Xeoc]

Just got my notice in the mail... This is for vehicles produced between June 28th 06 through May 19th 2007

"The number 4 engine mount bolt may loosen if a sudden/rapid acceleration is repeatedly preformed. If the vehicle is continuoulsly driven under such condition the number 4 engine mount bolt may loosen and fall out or break, allowing the transmission to be out of position. In extreme cases, the driveshaft may become detached. If this occurs the vehicle will immediately loose power, come to a stop and be inoperable. Should this occur, there is an increased risk of an accident."


Just a heads up for you speed3ers... I know I am not the only one! I am very grateful this problem has been addressed.

There are at least 4 threads about this already including a sticky.

Wow it took 2 weeks for the USPS to bring me my recall notice in mississippi? Or maybe my last name begining with a Y made me one of the last they sent it too?


In any case, my apologys for posting useless info.

/sigh

I went in for my first oil change the other day before i got the recall in the mail... they guy told me about it, then 20 min later walked up to me with a mangled motor mount, turns out i broke the bolt and mangled the s*** out of the mount, But its all good now.
