Please anyone have any info on this lawsuit contact me courtneywilliamsmassagegmail.com. I have gone through the timing chain problem over a year ago and the. It was a valve problem after that and then another valve problem and now I have a transmission problem I've only had this car for two years its at the mechanic shop right now and it has him baffled!!! I refuse to bring it back to Mazda cause for the timing chains they had my car for a month and ever since then I've had nothing but problems. I would love to sue the piss out of Mazda!!!!

There is an attorney named Colin that is filking a class action lawsuit re the VVT and related issues withthe CX7. He should be in touch but if you need more info please let me know. We are all in the same sinking boat

I had this same issue that I posted about last May. I have since fixed and sold my Mazda and took a huge loss. I have my documentation ready, let me know when a class action law suit is filed as I am owed some money back!

#527 of 578 Replacement parts by juice95m3

I recently purchased a 2007 CX-7 with 65,300 miles on it. The timing chain and VVT were replaced under warranty when the car had 34,847 miles on it. Reading all the horror stories has me wondering one thing. Has anyone had experience with replacement parts failing again like the original ones did?

I just traded off my 2007 CX-7 with 98,000 miles on it. It was running very well, had the VVT and air conditioner replaced just under 60,000 and under warranty, no issue with replacement parts. Never had the turbo problems some have had. My Madza mechanic gave me this tips, let the car run for a minute after driving before you shut it off, and change the oil every 2,000 miles. I think neglecting to let the turbo cool down before shutting off has likely contributed to problems. It is in the manual. I had no problems with the car between 60,000 and 98,000 miles. Have fun with your CX-7 I actually miss mine, it was fun to drive.
