just found a web site of every part recall for any car. I looked through it and found out I could ge my auoto seat belts that stoped working fixed for free. Look through it and maybe you'll find somthing too

it appears i can get a new idler arm, i doubt it's worth the effort though, i've allready replaced the bushing and i didn't find any abnormal corrosion of the arm itself

 

Yea, not much there for the first gens except they have a better more rust resistent idler arm for the early models. A different story for the 2nd and 3rd gens though. Why am I not surprised?

^^^^ I know, I have the only year of second gen with no recall^^^^
guess I lucked out.

 

I know what you mean I have the only year first gen with no recalls

 

I have the only year 1g with no recalls... W007

 

Uhh...Actually the neither the 84 or 85 have any recalls...so you can't have the only year with no recalls.
: )

 

Technically speaking, the recall for 79-83 models ended with cars built before 03/01/83, so the later 83's also had no recalls. Guess mine falls into the no recall section too, as it was built in 03/83.
I kinda doubt many 79-83 cars still have the original idler arm, thereby nullifying the recall eligibility.

 

ok so if i bring my car to a mazda dealership and let them inspect it and then they find one of thos things wrong.. they fix it for FREE?

 

I believe that once a recall is issued, it must be honored regardless of the cars age or mileage. This is mainly for safety items, such as steering/braking components and safety restraints. Would certainly be worth looking into.

 

Would you trust a Mazda mechanic with your car?

Not with the engine i wouldn't.

Also, since we're on the recall subject, doesn't Mazda have a lifetime warranty the seat belts?
