#635 of 730 Service for Brakes : teddyv [dherman] by autonomous Jul 12, 2006 (9:35 am)
Replying to: dherman (Jul 11, 2006 5:19 pm) My 2002 Protege5 has had better luck than yours since its riding on its original brakes after 73,000 km. Your annual driving figure seems unusually low; does that mean you drive only seasonally or just infrequently? Having your brakes serviced by a non-Mazda shop may be interpreted by the company as non-expert work that impacts the warranty. That's one reason why I had all essential work during the warranty period done at the same dealer; they have all the work on file. In addition, the fact that you are now out of the 3 year warranty period may make it difficult to get restitution. But, we wish you the best. Replies to this message: yu203964 (Jul 17, 2006 7:17 pm)
#636 of 730 My claim to Mazda by david82 Jul 12, 2006 (1:09 pm)
I just want to give you an update on my claim. They finally agreed to refund me for the grooved rotors. I didn't have to write a letter to Mazda Canada. I simply contacted them by phone and they in turn contacted the Service Mgr at the dealership. Replies to this message: yu203964 (Jul 17, 2006 7:18 pm)

Just wondering what's people's feedback on this car? My friend is thinking of getting the 5 door 2.3L. Replies to this message: pat (Jul 14, 2006 2:46 am)

Replying to: autonomous (Jul 12, 2006 9:35 am) Dherman: I think it's difficult to claim relief from MC if there's no TSB, which actually extends the warranty period and MC actually admits there are defects on the parts. You can see from my experience, I had to fight hard to get the refund. But David82 is more lucky. He just called and got the refund.

#641 of 730 TSB Extends the Warranty by ex_tdier Jul 17, 2006 (8:41 pm)
Is that right? I recall a few years ago a Ford dealership told me that a TSB only applies within warranty, while a recall will apply outside a warranty. For example, a wiper motor would be covered for 3 years, but if a TSB comes out and you don't have any problems until after your 3 year warranty expires, your're on your own.

Replying to: ex_tdier (Jul 17, 2006 8:41 pm) The TSB we were talking about extended the warranty to 48 months and 50,000 miles
#643 of 730 Re: excessive Parking Brake usage = excessive rear brake pad wear [autonomous] by wrussel Jul 23, 2006 (10:59 pm)
Replying to: autonomous (Jul 04, 2006 2:20 pm) Just my own personal experience. I use my parking brake very seldom now and the amount of brake dust on my aluminum wheels has decreased considerably.
#644 of 730 excessive Parking Brake usage = excessive rear brake pad wear by ex_tdier Jul 24, 2006 (2:42 pm)
I think the use of the parking brake is "give and take". I find that if I don't use the parking brake, I will have a bit of roll after releasing the brake pedal (in my automatic).   I would rather pay to have new pads/rotors then a huge tranny bill.
