SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:POWER ASSIST
AT 40000 MILEAGE MY ROTORS WERE REPLACED WHEN THE PADS HAD TO BE REPLACED. THE DEALER SAID THIS WAS CAUSED BY HARD PADS. @ 65,000 MY BRAKE BOOSTER WAS REPLACED WHICH I CAMPLAINED FOR 1 YEAR ABOUTA HIGH PITCHED NOISE. THREE WEEKS AGO THE DEALER HAD TO REPLACE THAT BOOSTER WITH ANOTHER, BECASUE THAT BOOSTER FAILED. NOW THIS PAST WEEK THE DEALERSHIP HAD TO REPLACE THE MASTER CYLINDER BECAUSE IT FAILED. MY ROTORS AT 79,000 ARE WORN OUT AGAIN BUT MAZDA WILL NOT REPLACE THEM THIS TIME. I FEELL THAT BECAUSE THE COMPONENTS WERE FAILING FOR A LONG TIME AND THERE ARE OTHER COMPLAINS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM, MAZDA SHOULD HAVE TOTALLY REBUILT THE BRAKING SYSTEM INSTEAD OF BANDAIDING IT. ALSO THE DISTRICT SERVICE MANAGER WILL NOT APPROVE REPLACING THE ROTORS BECAUSE OF THE MILEAGE, YET I HAVE HAD THESE CONTINUING PROBLEMS.*AK
